THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES This Constitution has benefited more people for a longer time than any other instrument with the exception of the Bible. The Constiution guarantees freedom from a tyrannical and oppressive government. However, evil men are constantly seeking power over the masses; and this is demonstrated by todays attacks on our Constituion and freedom. This website is a protest to the people promoting the socialist agenda. "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constiution, nor prohibited by it to the states respectively or to the people." This Amendment was required by the states to keep the federal government from becoming all powerful and dictatoral. Recently, unscrupulous judges have circumvented this amendment using various means. If we are to remain a free people, we must use this Amendment to remove the federal government intrusion into our lives. All citizens must work toward this end; otherwise, we citizens will become subjects. There are 16,000,000 of these so called "Obama phones" floating around the USA. How about that for a vote getter. (Pine and Lewis, Tulsa, OK USA)

Nick Knight of Secant Technologies is already well known to Fidonet users for his QWK-standard mailer, MR/2. The new product, MR/2 ICE (Internet Cruiser Edition), has little to do with that program, however. It is, in fact, a complete E-mail system for the POP3 and SMTP standards. There are, in addition, already plans to add a newsgroup reader. The E-mail portion is for the most part complete and works flawlessly. MR/2 ICE can even be configured to receive mail by SMTP, whereas POP3 reads work using the pre-configured settings. Mail can be sent using either POP3 or SMTP without any further configuration. MR/2 ICE is a fully integrated PM program. If the developers of OS/2 had only suspected the extent to which programmers would use the notebook strategy perhaps they would have taken more care in its design and organization. The complete user interface of MR/2 ICE takes on the form of a notebook. There are three standard notebook tabs - Inbox, Outbox and Folders. When you create new folders in order to sort your mail according to topic or person, a double-click opens a new notebook page. A new tab with the appropriate name also appears. These dynamic notebook pages take some getting used to, especially since these pages can only be closed by the context menu of the corresponding folder. Once you have gotten used to this system, however, it turns out to be an unusually practical arrangement that elegantly bypasses a number of the more nonsensical peculiarities of the notebook design. Even in the beta versions, the program is quite stable. A few performance problems, for instance when opening the reader and the editor after receiving mail, will probably be ironed out at the latest in the final release. A number of very attractive and useful features such as a good editor with numerous functions, a large number of templates for signatures, diverse macros for automatic configuration of the templates, drag and drop, etc. make MR/2 ICE a serious competitor for existing E-mail programs. Nick Knight has created a special web-page for MR/2 ICE: http://www.mr2ice.com/. You can find beta- and release versions there. Shareware registration is $20.00 during the beta phase and will probably by $25.00 for the release version (without Newsgroup support).

Well, once you got used to the advanced features of VIM you might find the build in editor of the GPS lacking. The GPS is still good for compiling and file browsing. All the "goto declaration", "Goto file spec<->body" etc. pp. functions are realy cool. But for hard-core typing in source-code VIM is indeed better. Luckily GPS can call an external editor - only the predefined VIM commandline won't cut it. Here the correct call for VIM: This commandline make use of the VIM server mode so that only one vim per GPS is started. BTW: The default for VIM and VI setting use xterm - which won't work with Windows and is a lot slower (first you need to start an xterm and then then VIM itself, which is turn has to load and parse the configuration files) then just passing a new filename to a VIM server: +%l %f xterm © 2005 Martin Krischik, Content is available under GNU Free Documentation License.

Many real-world applications of language models (LMs), such as code autocomplete and writing assistance, involve human-LM interaction, but the main LM benchmarks are non-interactive, where a system produces output without human intervention. To evaluate human-LM interaction, we develop a framework, Human-AI Language-based Interaction Evaluation (H-LINE), that expands non-interactive evaluation along three dimensions, capturing (i) the interactive process, not only the final output; (ii) the first-person subjective experience, not just a third-party assessment; and (iii) notions of preference beyond quality. We then design five tasks ranging from goal-oriented to open-ended to capture different forms of interaction. On four state-of-the-art LMs (three variants of OpenAI's GPT-3 and AI21's J1-Jumbo), we find that non-interactive performance does not always result in better human-LM interaction and that first-person and third-party metrics can diverge, suggesting the importance of examining the nuances of human-LM interaction. translated by 谷歌翻译

My daughter is a big fan of YouTube. So much so, she wants her own YouTube Show. Together we created “The Family Show.” I hate editing videos, so episodes come out real slow. After relentless pestering and an idea I had after watching the first Democratic debate, I wrote my daughter a sketch announcing her candidacy for President of the United States. This is the video and then a little discussion to follow. The goal here was to write something funny and something that could be performed by an 8-year-old. After watching the first Democratic Presidential Debate, I was inspired to write a speech for my daughter. Normally shy, when I approached her about the idea, the kid got excited. Now the speech writing. Keep it simple, she’s only eight. Simple opener and closer and three points. Point 1 – the wall to keep out spiders. This is an obvious play on the Trump wall at the border. I told the joke to my daughter and with her understanding of spiders and ladybugs, she responded, “That is actually true.” Point 2 – The cat joke. The kid helped with the premise and I wrote the punchline. She still doesn’t get the fact that there are literally cats everywhere. Point 3 – The idea was hers. My part was the sad reaction at the end and the sound effect. Now the hard part — filming the darn thing. Step 1 – Print large cue cards. Step 2 – Practice. Step 3 – Film it. Filming was hard because I wanted to do it in one take. That didn’t work. There’s a level of exhaustion and attention that can’t last beyond 3 minutes. Two takes for us. The plush cat gag was her idea and not worth the fight to cut. I’m proud the first joke worked. The cat joke not so much. The sound effect was perfect for the third joke. I wanted perfection so bad, but we were running out of time and patience, we got what we got. She’s my daughter. I love her. And there will always be more videos.

Nonetheless, it is actually essential to conduct due persistance prior to obtaining Samui land available, as the country uses distinct classifications as well as building/environmental guidelines that represent the type, dimension, and also style of buildings that may be designed on a given tract of land.

I feel like I just made my non-Stamps-Baxter-Southern-Gospel debut! Tonight, I attended a concert in Walling, about 2 hours from Nashville. I'm sure in the light of day, it's beautiful country out there. But getting lost and ending up on a unlit dirt road was not my finest moment. I'm a city girl - I like streets that are concrete and have signs that flash at me. But I digress... The concert started with the Anchored Quartet. Great sound, with a strong blend. Next was my friend, Wess Adams. I met Wess and his wife, Susan, at Stamps-Baxter 2 years ago. Last year, he moved to Nashville and recorded his first CD. It was great to hear him in a full set with his own songs. And then came the headliner: Allison Durham Speer! It was so good to see her. Allison is one of the best live performers I know. Her voice is tremendous and she makes great song choices. She has the best stories about her family, and she always throws in a good amount of theology to boot. One song she chose tonight was "Sweet Beulah Land". I just loved hearing her voice soar on that chorus. But then she turned to me, put the mic in my face, and said, "Do you know this?" Eep! I do know it, but I was a little freaked out, so I took the mic, Allison fed me the words, and I sang the first verse. When it came to the chorus, Allison whispered, "Take the lead" and she sang a harmony line. I couldn't believe I was singing an impromptu duet with Allison Durham Speer! At the end of the song, the audience gave us a standing ovation. I was overwhelmed.... At the end of the show, Allison got Wess, the quartet and a few friends up to sing "What a Day", and I was also invited up to join in. Again, I just felt honoured to be up on stage with this great group of performers. After the show, so many people came up to compliment me on my voice, welcome me to Tennessee, and to tell me that they would pray for my ministry. A little girl asked me for my autograph. Tonight was an incredible show with great talent and wonderful songs, but being invited to sing just made it over the top. Allison and Wess and Susan, have offered to give me some advice on getting in the 'loop' here in Nashville. Driving 2 hours there and back and getting lost was all pretty awful, but it was so worth it all. Tonight was incredible! It was so worth the drive!

The 'Comfort Zone' No one likes to be challenged out of their 'comfort zone'. You know - the place where you know you will succeed. Please note that I am not talking about real safety. There is a HUGE difference between challenging yourself to do something you are worried you will fail at, and putting yourself at risk of harm. I am not a 'risk-taker' by any means. I hate roller-coasters. I despise scary movies. I don't speed through yellow lights hoping to pass through. At the same time, I'm not superstitious. I will take some risks if I think that they are reasonable. I will apply for positions that I am not sure I will get. I will try drawing something that I have never tried before. I will (cautiously!) try new yoga positions to test my balance. At the same time, I very much dislike getting out of my comfort zone in certain situations. For example, I applied to a position a while ago, feeling nervous that I would not get it. I mean, how awful would it be if I did NOT get it? I would feel like a failure. Like I 'wasn't good enough'. How pathetic would it be to look others in the eye and KNOW that they did not choose me for the position? But are these thoughts realistic? Would I really be a FAILURE if I did not the position? Would I be the first or last person to apply for a role and not get it? Part of stepping out of our comfort zones means noticing the stories we tell ourselves. What is your story about your comfort zone? What happens if you try and do not succeed? What do you tell yourself if you get nervous in front of a group when you present? What does it say about you if you lead a group but you don't all achieve your goals? What is the message you repeat to yourself if you try a project but don't get it right the first time? You see, it's ourselves who define our comfort zones. No one can make you feel inferior without your permission. Your comfort zone is comfortable...and that's all. It provides stability. But to grow, to test your limits, to know your potential...you have to step out of that comfort zone. Which is, obviously, uncomfortable. But it can be incredibly worth it. Maybe you won't succeed. Maybe you will try, but you won't get the job. Or that person won't be interested in you. Or your coworkers won't agree with your ideas. But, at least you will have tried. You will have learned lessons about yourself, about others, about life, and about taking (safe) risks. You will have noticed that you are capable of trying new things. You are capable of taking risks, of accepting rejections and disappointments, and of growing all the while. You are allowed to take risks, to step out of that comfort zone that you have created, to go beyond the limits you set yourself. You are allowed to dream, to make goals, and to try to achieve them. You are also allowed to be imperfect, to take steps back, and to regroup when things don't go as planned. You are allowed to be human. Because if it doesn't challenge, you, it doesn't change you.

Principle Of High-performance Liquid Chromatography HPLC is a chromatographic technique used to separate compounds or mixtures in the area of analytical chemistry, biochemistry and in the production sector. HPLC thus plays a vital role in the pharmaceutical area because it’s used to check the products and components used to create them. Simply said, it is a way of separating, identifying and measuring each component in a mixture or compound. It includes the use of pumps to maneuver pressurized liquid solvent comprising a sample of this mixture through a column containing solid absorbent substance. The principle of HPLC is not a complex rocket science to understand. The sample mixture to be separated and examined is introduced, in tiny volumes, in the mobile phase percolating throughout the pillar. The mobile phase is that the pressurized liquid that is typically a combination of solvents like water, methanol and acetonitrile. Mechanical pumps are Used to pump the mobile phase into the system and injector introduces the sample to be examined into the mobile phase which enters the column at a constant mass flow rate. However, components of the mixture move through the column at different velocities that are functions of the interaction with the absorbent material. The column separates the elements of the compound or mixtures on the basis of the polarity. The speed of each component is dependent upon its chemical nature, nature of this column and composition of the mobile phase. what is hplc The time and a particular analyze emerges from the column is called retention period and is an identifying characteristic of a specific analyze when measured certain conditions. An analyze is a sample whose components are being analyzed. The use of small size particles requires high pressure during operation and it boosts the chromatographic resolution the level of separation of successive analyses emerging from the column. Common mobile phases Used are any miscible mixture between water and inorganic compounds such as acetonitrile and methanol. Some HPLC uses water-free mobile stages. The aqueous part of a mobile phase may contain salts or acids to assist in separation of elements. Additionally, the composition of the mobile phase could be kept constant or may be varied throughout the chromatographic analysis. Detectors are utilized to identify the separated elements by ultraviolet light absorption that is dependent upon the concentration of the mix in the mobile phase. The principle of HPLC outlined above can be carried out in a variety of methods namely, partition chromatography, normal-phase chromatography, displacement chromatography, reversed-phase chromatography RPC, size-exclusion chromatography and ion-exchange chromatography. The parameters to take into account for the mentioned types are the inner width of the column, the pore size of absorbent, pump pressure, particle sizes and auto samplers. The principle of HPLC has a significant effect in the pharmaceutical area and its advantages and efficacy cannot be parallel to any other method of ascertaining the components or components of substances and mixtures used in the production of goods like drugs.

Tax Documents, 1942 - 1944 Scope and Contents The Elisha Palmer papers largely consists of legal documents (deeds, mortgages, a land patent signed by President Woodrow Wilson, lease agreements and tax records), correspondence (oil and land related). It also contains a great deal of his records regarding his citrus crops going back to the mid-1920s (harvest receipts and growers association bulletins), his oil interests maps and revenues from his property dating back to the late teens), and a few notable advertising pamphlets and blurbs from the mid-1930s to the late 1950s, as well as documents written (mostly) during World War II on the Japanese in California. Ms. Clara Engle's research notes from her Master’s thesis on the Orange County Citrus Strike of 1936. It is very probable that she was instrumental in getting Betty Palmer to donate the Palmer family’s papers to the university. The collection, as a whole reveals some more detail on the citrus and oil industries as well as daily life on an orange ranch in Orange County during the first half of the 20th Century. - 1942 - 1944 From the Collection: 13 boxes (12 legal size boxes and one manuscript box) Language of Materials Part of the CSUF University Archives & Special Collections Repository University Archives & Special Collections Pollak Library South Room 352 (PLS 352) Fullerton CA 92831-3599 USA

What Magic Do You Choose? By Bart Sharp Excerpt from the book “Magic Speaks” The best option I have in almost any situation is to create in a positive way. It is our nature to grow through the making of positively-influenced creations that make magic more possible. Yet some distract themselves from doing it that way. You want to ask yourself, “Would a child choose to create with such negativity or with a joyful exuberance?” We simultaneously build a reality in us like a furnace burning inside as our internal power. The more we do it, the more it accumulates, our magic potential does as well. Joy’s source to stay bright is our choice. We can feed ourselves or diminish in the sabotage of fear-based thinking. To create in this way is an affirmation of love. If we circulate love inside ourselves we see it everywhere else much easier. Can love be our attracting magnet? It is the space to create magic.

One of my aims is to update this blog regularly, at least once a week. So we’ve hit Wednesday, the day I randomly decided was update day and I haven’t got anything prepared. Just about all my waking hours are currently dedicated to finishing Fable Heroes, leaving little time for anything else. So I thought I’d do a quick post sharing some of my favourite talks from GDC last month, once again I wasn’t there so I’ve been catching up with these any spare moment I get. This is a great talk by Andrew Willmott and others about the new simulation engine Maxis have developed for Sim City 5. As someone who played a lot of Sim City & Sim City 2000 growing up and having worked on the simulation for Black & White 2, Fable 2 & 3 I find this stuff fascinating. Slides for the talk can be found on Andrew’s site. And there are videos of part of the talk, showing some of their new systems: It Stinks and I Don’t Like It: Making a Better Engine Experience At Insomniac Games This talk covers how they changed their tools at Insomniac to improve the user experience and speed up development. Annotated slides for the talk can be found here. Do (Say) The Right Thing Josh Sawyer’s talk about narrative and choice architecture in games: http://diogenes-lamp.info/GDC12_Do_Say_The_Right_Thing.pdf Portal 2 Post Mortem Definitely worth an hour of your time to watch.

How many kick themselves over not investing with bitcoin early, selling or spending their bitcoins or simply talking about investing instead of doing it. It’s not too late to starting making money from cryptocurrencies as their are now emerging cryptocurrencies coming up through the ranks. These new currencies all have month on month gains to boast and Bitcoins biggest rival is Ethereum or ETH. Why Purchase Ethereum? The trading price of Ethereum has been gaining over the last few months. Compared to when it was first created, it has gone from $10 to $410 at its peak. Ethereum currency has shown less volatility than other cryptocurrencies and has in turn gained interest to the point that it’s a very real rival to BTC. Having said this, very few can can predict with any certainty but while this keeps day traders watching for buy and sell within a short period keen, one thing is certain. If you’d invested initially when this currency started you’d be doing extremely well financially right now. It dances about daily but it’s nearly always on the up making it a good longer term investment. How To Purchase Ethereum? There are two ways to get yourself Ethereum ETH cryptocurrency tokens. You can build an expensive mining rug and get ready for some big electricity bills by using it to “mine” Ethereum, the resource heavy and highly complex process of producing new cryptographic coding that keeps the Ethereum network alive. This clearly isn’t a viable option for most traders, so the preferred method is to just purchase them. Buying cryptocurrencies was at one time a very complicated affair due to the inability to use Visa systems and most recognised payment methods. It was a case of getting in touch with owners, using escrow, TT transfers, trust and always a good deal of hassle. This is no longer the case as you can now buy Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies from reputable services like coindesk. Get $10 Ethereum Free Using Our Guide Below Along with being big fans and discerning users of the Coinbase.com service, we are partnered with them to offer an account opening bonus using our guide below.

The Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center is known throughout the world for its innovative and often revolutionary cancer treatments. What may be surprising is that members of the Mass General team are supplementing their biomedical cancer treatments with a therapy so ancient that it predates recorded history. The therapy? Acupuncture. Unlike biomedicine, with acupuncture we can come up with special point prescriptions that we can customize. Acupuncture’s premise is that energy (chi) flows through a person’s body over 12 channels and 365 specific points. When one’s chi is disrupted or blocked, problems (such as pain) ensue. By inserting thin needles into the affected points, a trained acupuncturist can restructure and rebalance the blocked chi. This ancient Chinese “medicine” has shown worthwhile effects on cancer patients. “Unlike biomedicine, with acupuncture we can come up with special point prescriptions that we can customize,” says Jessica Gerber, LIC.AC., an acupuncturist who works with the hospital’s Katherine A. Gallagher Integrative Therapies Program. “The beauty of being able to customize the medicine is that you can really get to the root of what people want help with.” With cancer patients, that could mean a reduction in radiation site pain (especially for breast cancer patients), post-surgical pain and the nausea that often accompanies chemotherapy.

Reason # 22 You were made to praise God! Sometimes the Scriptures just say it plain. Ephesians 1:12-13 says In Christ Jesus we were also chosen, destined in accord with the purpose of the one who accomplishes all things according to the intention of his will, so that we might exist for the praise of his glory. Notice that the text says we exist for the praise of God’s glory. You and I were made to praise the Lord. The old catechechism says that God made us to know him, love him, and serve him in the life, and to be happy with him forever. It is simple but profound. You and I were made for these fundamental reasons. We were not made for all the reasons that the world says such as: to be popular, rich, famous, sexy, powerful. Most who have tried these things feel unsatisfied and in the end if we live for this we eventually die…end of story! But the truth is we were made for God and exist for the praise of his glory. Our peace and contentment are wrapped up in God and God alone. One thing I’ve noticed in my life is that it is just plain refreshing to praise God. It resonates within my very being to sing a stirring hymn of praise or meditate upon a refelective song. There is just no doubt in my mind, I was made to praise to the Lord because when I do there is a wondrous sense of fulfillment within me. Here then is another reason to come home to God’s house: we were made to praise God. And I promise you, whatever your personality, when you praise the Lord, you will find joy and serene peace because this is why we were made. Below are a few songs of praise in different styles: contemporary, traditional Latin, and Gospel. Pick a video and spend a few moments praising God. But remember, it is best done in Church every Sunday. We’ve saved you a pew. TRADITIONAL LATIN – Exsultate Justi in Domino – Translation: Exsult you just in the Lord. Praise befits the upright! Give praise to the Lord on the harp and with ten stringed lyre sing to him. Sing to him a new song, sing well to him with strong voice! For the word of the Lord is upright and all his works are faithful! The Lord loves mercy and justice and of his mercy the earth is full. Looking for some good Catholic reading for Lent or Easter? Sr. Julia of the Daughters of St. Paul suggests some possibilities for your bookshelf. One of the books she reviews is Fr. Robert Barron’s The Strangest Way. I agree with her, it is a marvelous book. Also reviewed are Balthasar’s Heart of the World and Hansen’s The Gospels for Prayer. The books she suggests in this video are primarily spiritual reading (rather than history or theology per se). Note also, this video is edited from a longer one and some of the cuts are abrupt but you’ll get the basic point 🙂 By the way, I tried to link the books above to the Daughters of St Paul Bookstore but, strangely, they do not seem to appear when you place them in the search engine. Thus, the links to Amazon! Reason # 21 – The Command. Not uncommonly today I hear some people say that they do not go to Church because they “don’t get anything out of it.” We can address the substance of this complaint in a moment but first it must be said that we don’t go to Church merely to get something out of it. We go because we are commanded by God to do so. The Third Commandment says, “Remember to keep holy the Sabbath.” The Book of Leviticus spells the commandment out for us further: “For six days work may be done; but the seventh day is the sabbath rest, a day for sacred assembly.” (Lev 23:3). Let’s be clear, God is not merely suggesting or requesting that we keep holy the Sabbath, he is commanding it. We are to avoid unnecessary work and to keep “sacred assembly,” Sacred assembly means, getting to Church. The notion that we should simply go because we get something out of it is rather an ego-centric approach and misses the more simple reason of obedience. We ought to go simply because God commands it. Now we may wonder as to why God commands it. It remains true that God does not command things of us merely for arbitrary reasons. The most obvious answers as to why he commands it would seem to be these: He has many graces to bestow on us at Mass He knows we need community and fellowship in order to be spiritually healthy We need to be instructed in his Holy Word We need to be fed on his Body and Blood Alone, we do not have all the gifts we need, but together and with Christ we have all the gifts we need. We need the blessings and minsitry of the priest who acts in the person of Christ. Now as to the point that some raise that they don’t get anything out of Mass there are many possible answers. I would first say that it is a call and reminder to the clergy and to parishes that the Mass and all liturgical celebrations should be well planned, beautifully celebrated, and reverently prayed. The Mass, well celebrated, should never be boring. Every priest or deacon who preaches should be prepared, enthusiastic and prophetic. The choirs, lectors, ushers and others should all be prepared and enthusiastic about what they do. Every priest should celebrate Mass with piety and devotion. So, in the first place I think that we who are tasked with planning and celebrating the Sacred Liturgy should take to heart the complaint that some (not a few) make when they claim to get little out of it. However, it also remains true that in order to get something out of Mass, everyone has to come prepared and with plans to participate. The Mass is not spectator sport. We are all to pray and take part in the Sacred liturgy. We ought to grow in our understanding of the Mass over the years and be as attentive as possible. In the end, if we receive Jesus in Holy Communion can we really say we “got nothing out of Mass?” So here is a call to faith as well. But let’s end where we started. We go to Mass in the first place because we are commanded by God to do so. Hence, even if the choir is off for the summer or my favorite priest is away on vacation, or the new pastor isn’t to my liking etc, we go anyway. We go because we love God and want to obey him. We don’t just go to get entertained. We go to worship God. And God is worthy of our praise, worthy of our obedience. Here’s a reason to come home: He’s worthy of our praise and our obedience. If you’re preparing for the Sacrament of Confession (which you ought to celebrate sometime during Lent) here is a litany of Repentance. What is good about this approach is that it lists many attitudes and drives that are sinful and thus helps us to look a little deeper, beyond our external behaviors to the deeper dirve that give rise to sin. I have put the Litany in pdf form and you can get it here: Litany of Penance and Reparation There is also an Examination of Conscience that is pretty good and is available here: Examen Reason # 20 – The Final Wish of a Dying Friend – Consider the following scenario. You are crossing the street with a friend and suddenly as if out of nowhere a large truck is bearing down on you both. Your friend sees it coming and pushes you out of the way but takes the full force of the hit himself. Coming to your senses you run to your friend who lies dying in the road. In grief you lament his imminent death and thank him for saving your life. You say, “What can I ever do to thank you for what you have done?!” And he says, with his dying breath, “Please go to Church and remember me at the altar every Sunday.” ….Would you do it? …..Of course you would! This is the final wish of a dying friend who saved your life. Well, isn’t this what Jesus did? Just before he died for us he left us a last request: “Do this in remembrance of Me.” Do what? you might say. Here is Jesus request in context: The setting is the Last Supper that Jesus had with his disciples on the last evening before he died. As he sat at table with them he said, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer…” Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me.” And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which will be shed for you. So here is what we are to do in memory of Him: celebrate the Holy Mass, receive Holy Communion! It seems so little and yet so many have drifted away from this last request. It must have been important to Jesus since it was his final request. So here is a powerful reason to come home, to fulfill the final wish of a dying friend, a dying Savior and Lord who saved your life, who died in your place: “Do this in memory of me.” The Book of Psalms also says it so well: “What return (what thanks) can I ever give the Lord for all the good he has done for me?! The cup of salvation I will take up, and I will call on the name of the Lord.” (Ps 116:13) What a beautiful line to remember as you see the priest lift up the Chalice at every mass and remember the final wish of a dying friend. The following video is one of the more intriguing vocation videos I have seen. And it is from an interesting source. The video also illustrates well the general theme of this blog that the longings we experience are ultimately about God, whatever our vocation. Sister calls her longing that “tug in her heart.” Because of the hype surrounding Stem Cell Research, Catholic teaching on this matter is often misunderstood and misrepresented. The basic facts on Catholic teaching are these: The Catholic Church does not oppose all stem cell research. We oppose embryonic stem cell research but we support adult stem cell research. We oppose embryonic stem cell research because it involves the killing of a human being. Some may say it is only an embryo but, raise your hand if YOU started out as an embryo. The truth is that human life proceeds in stages from conception to natural death. No one of these stages is more or less sacred than another. At the moment of conception a unique human person is created. Everything we will physically ever be is present at the moment of conception. The truth is that every human person goes through stages. I spent time in my mother’s womb. When I was in my 20s I was young , tan and trim, lately I am more old, white and fat. I currently am 47, balding, graying, and carrying a bit more weight than I should. Before you know it I’ll be getting my AARP invitation. Before I least expect I will become a senior citizen and head into the autumn of my life. Every stage is sacred. We can’t just say, “Well, certain stages of human development are not deserving of our respect. Adult stem cell research is a promising field and should be encouraged. In it we use our own stem cells which is safer and means that someone else doesn’t have to die to improve my life. Many cures already exist that have come from adult stem cell research. Embryonic stem cell research has produced no cures. The body tissue produced through this procedure is unstable and tends to produce tumors. Further, and most importantly, another human being has to die so that I can possibly be cured. Well, enough from me. I encourage you view the following videos when you have time. They set forth the basic Catholic teaching that we share with many other Christian denominations and others in the Scientific field. This first video is six minutes in length and explains the opposition to embryonic stem cell research: This second video (12 minutes in length) is produced by the Michigan Catholic Conference and expands on the first video Reason # 18 – The Good Priests. Much has been written lately about the sins of some priests who horribly committed sexual abuse. May God bless those who were victims of such priests. But the vast majority of priests are good, holy and dedicated men who given themselves selflessly to God and the service of his people. I can testify to many good priests who helped me along the way. The priests who serve us in the Church are not perfect men but most all of them love God and his people. They work long hours and are present at some of the most difficult and joyful moments of our lives. Most of them are quiet servants, answering late night phone calls, celebrating early masses, sitting through long meetings and patiently listening to our concerns, struggles, joys and hopes, questions, and doubts. They celebrate the Sacraments with devotion, both for God and their people. And truth be told most Catholics love their priests, pray for them, respect them and value their service. So here is a reason to come home: many good priests are waiting to serve you and celebrate the significant moments of your life. Many good priests await your return. Here is a beautiful Video that celebrates the ministry priests among us:

It’s obvious that workforce recruiting has changed markedly over the past decade. To start, many job seekers now use online services to land the right job. Perhaps more important, the core skills needed today are different from those of the past. While having excellent technology knowledge matters, you must also be a terrific communicator. The ability to share your ideas with peers and the leadership team is a critical success factor. In my day-to-day work, I’m fortunate to meet many people who are either interviewing for positions or looking to fill vacancies. I make it a habit to chat with these individuals about the hot buttons to push during the interview. #1: Act normal and be relaxed. While there is a formality to an interview, you must also make sure to show your human side. Therefore, think of the interview as having a professional conversation. This means you will prepare well, dress right, and provide in-depth responses to questions. However, the interview is also a conversation, meaning that you need to have a relaxed approach. For example, if you have a planned response to a question that might arise during the interview, make sure to rehearse so that the delivery is natural. I recommend using examples because it highlights your work experience and makes the interview more engaging. #2: Think bigger than the interview question. The excellent candidates are able to understand the macro-perspective of an interview question. In other words, you must avoid thinking too narrowly. Let’s take the following question: “Can you tell me how you managed a difficult situation with a co-worker?” As you know, this is a standard and “loaded” question. Making a mistake with your response can result in halting your progress in the selection process. Here’s a good response: “There is no doubt that conflict will arise between co-workers. However, I take a positive perspective to situations where we might see things differently. I recall a situation that I can share from working at Crimson Print Shop as an Operations Manager. The Sales Manager came to my office on Monday morning upset because we were unable to meet a big order for a new client. He was right that my team fell short of the requirement, but I explained to him that my team worked through the weekend trying to complete the order. Unfortunately, we overwhelmed one machine, and it broke. I made it clear that the repair company was contacted immediately, and the machine would be back in order by the afternoon. Once he was aware of the extra effort from our department, he smiled, thanked me, and even shook my hand.” Notice the response to this question includes an example. In addition, the Operations Manager accepted accountability for the problem and implemented a solution. Hiring managers appreciate hearing that you went beyond reporting a problem. Make sure to discuss how you used a contingency plan or workaround to rectify the situation. Finally, the two managers developed a positive working relationship. Today, cross-functional communication is in high demand. You’re not going to land every job. There are too many variables that are considered. You might lack some of the necessary skills, or your cover letter failed to pique the interest of the screener. However, you need to be persistent. Once you get the interview, be confident, use examples, think big picture, and stay calm.

About a month or so ago, I jokingly said to a girlfriend that we should run away for the weekend. A few days later, train tickets were purchased and we had a plan to spend two nights in Seattle. Other than checking out the Gauguin exhibit at the Seattle Art Museum, we didn't make any plans. Mostly we just walked and ate and enjoyed being unencumbered adults for the weekend, where nobody needed anything from us and we were free to roam at will. In no particular order, here are some images I captured of our time there: I confess that the train travel and the opportunity to snap some candid photos with my new camera has got me itching to get to France. We leave two months from today!

President Obama's speech on regulatory reform was less painful than I had feared. I was hoping that Obama would have given us more details on the plan. Instead his briefing was more like the vague political posturing used by the Neocon Phil Gramm (R-Texas) back in the Clinton era to sell us on Credit Default Swaps. The speech had many good points. For example, Obama dislikes the horrifically complex mortgages with pages of fine print that few can understand. This section of the speech would be welcome if not for the fact that it was given by a person with a track record or jamming through extremely complex legislation rife with fine print that few understand. The turn in the speech that I liked was that Obama did not say our problems were the result of the last eight years (he said they were the results of decades of thinking). He also did not blame economic woes on "deregulation." Unfortunately, I fear that the leaders of this nation (both R and Ds) have realized that our problems are not simply with the regulations in place, but with the way that we think about the economy. Obama's speech establishes risk management as the primnary concern of the economy. In reality, the central focus of the economy should be the building of equity coupled with people the living happy, fulfilled lives. This process of created a hugely centralized government justified by risk management concerns is precisely the wrong direction. Don't you see? The whole point of Credit Default Swaps, the mortgage backed securities, the government backed re-insurance, the short selling, the hedge funds, and the myraid of other complex financial instruments was an ill fated effort to create a set of financial tools that would set up a ruling class. To truly solve the problem we need to root deeper and find the problem with our thinking that made risk management, opposed to building equity, the primary concern of our economy.

I haven’t looked up the statistics myself but Gina, who did, tells me they’re sufficiently not in the passengers’ favor that she and the kids have elected not to board the little planes flying a mere four hundred meters up in the sky above the unexplained and incomprehensible Nazca lines with me today. That’s fine, more for me… The aerodromo is in the middle of nowhere and frankly quite well appointed, if empty, its only use being for those stupid enough to ignore statistics. A slightly unerving fact probably unintentionally made more apparent by our Movil Airlines pilot whom, after introducing himself, started his briefing with: “Don’t be nervous, just imagine you’re in front of your tv at home and relax…” Not a good sign. Especially when followed with: “While we’re above the lines, the plane with dip forty five degrees on one side and then forty five degrees on the other, for about thirty minutes so you can all see the ground…” Sounds lovely, let’s go! The flight from Ica to Nazca takes about twenty minutes and is pleasant enough, especially as you can’t help but be amazed by the transition from city to desert, I love that stuff, you know, transitions! Anyway, once you’re deep into the Peruvian sand, the most interesting things you see at first are the thousands of flow lines, left by thousands of evaporated rivers and realize that these millions of acres of nothing were once lush forests, all green and life-giving to the communities living in and around these parts. Wild. Once you get above the lines, the roller coaster begins as you fly on top of the famous twelve being gently screamed at over the loudspeaker about the “Whale to your right!” “Eagle to your left!” “Spider to your right!” Parrot to your left!” in a less-than-inspired voice with zero explanation, interpretation or theory as to what these icons might represent in their historical context. This is one of the wonders of the world and there is nothing, nothing to glean from the people responsible for showing you the work of their ancestors. Which is a real shame because when you see the one they call “The Cosmonaut,” an obviously humanoid figure with a square helmet (which you can peep a bit in the video above) you really, REALLY want to know what that’s about, even if it’s wrong! It took no more than thirty minutes to go around, with each figure passing too quickly that I only had time to look with my own eyes (while the camera was on constant record mode, catching what it could) sadly unable to snap any pictures, explaining the lack of them here. For that, I apologize. This week, we jump ship to Chile, where we shall meet again…

This Friday night, at Greencastle’s First Friday, we’ll be trying something new, letting folks carve a foam block into a car, then propel them down a wire on Franklin Street. For the first attempts we’re keeping it simple, although admittedly we’ve got bigger plans. For Friday night we’ve built a platform to put the foam block on, participants can carve the block into a car body, then will launch it down a cable using a CO2 cartridge. In the future we’re going to try 3D printed and laser-cut wheels & want to also try using model rocket engines for propulsion. We’ve even thought about dual tracks for racing and putting an on-board micro:bit to measure speed and acceleration. Come join us on Friday night from 6-8 pm on Franklin Street in downtown Greencastle and to try out our first prototypes!

In the winter, enjoy the hot-tub on the deck plus outdoor activities such as snowshoeing, snowmobiling and ice skating. Chalet Rose-et-Lys is west facing on 150 feet of waterfront. Experience the sunsets from the swing down by the waterfront or on the deck. Keep the bird feeders topped up and you will have hummingbirds in the summer and an almost endless stream of birds in the winter. The cottage was once a model home in the Salon de l’Habitation in Montreal (2009). The interior finishing, kitchen cabinets, bathroom, wall coverings, flooring, and even exterior lighting and trim were selected by interior designers to showcase new materials. The house is equipped with an air-heat exchanger keeping the cottage well ventilated and warm in all seasons. Living / dining / kitchen The living and dining rooms are surrounded by windows with beautiful views in all directions and you can walk out to the large deck with tempered glass railing. The dining table when folded is intimate for 2 to 4 people, but expands to comfortably seat 8. An electric fireplace adds warmth to the room. The modern galley style designer kitchen has ceramic cooktop, oven, stainless appliances, dishwasher, coffee maker, kettle and is well supplied with all that you need (including kitchen basics such as herbs, salt / pepper etc). Kitchen linen is included. All bed linen is included in the rental price. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and 8 foot patio doors on the deck. The clerestory windows allow you to lie in bed and see the stars or the moon. The second bedroom on the main floor has a queen size bed and cedar lined walls. The third bedroom, at ground level below, has a walk out to the firepit. This room is furnished with a double pull out couch and a single futon. The designer bathroom has a large walk-in shower, rainfall shower-head, and waterfall taps at the double sink. The 9 foot ceilings and a window that open keep it bright and airy. Inside towels are included in the rental cost, but please bring your own beach towels. A kayak, canoe, pedal boat and fishing boat with electric motor are provided during the summer and fall. The cottage faces the setting sun and the beach area is sunny all afternoon. A comfortable swing and hammock by the water is a great place for enjoying the sunsets or a cup of morning coffee. The lake water is very clear for swimming and we always get a great rating for water quality. The firepit has a fantastic view over the lake. Roddick Lake is near Bouchette, in Quebec about 1.5 hours North of Ottawa. It is a beautiful lake over 6km long and very popular for boating and fishing. You can go hiking on the beautiful trail up to the lookout, explore the small islands on the lake, take a short drive away for a game of golf or visit the deer at a local sanctuary in Ste-Therese de la Gatineau. It is also close to white-water on the Gatineau River. Explore and Experience Many fun things to do and explore in Roddick Lake! Interested?

CLICK HERE FOR OVERALL RESULTS The organising team of the Colin McRae forest stages rally would like to thank all those involved in the running of another great event. We thank all marshals, officials, radio crews, rescue, doctors and recovery crews, who spent a long time in the forests, for their time and expertise. We also would like to thank the many people from in and around Perth who help make the event happen, Perth City Council, The City Centre management, The Tayside Police, The Forestry Commission, Tillhill Forestry, Perth racecourse and many more. It was great to see so may cars start the event and we are happy that most of them enjoyed the stages even though someone has said they were a bit slippy! We would also like to thank the huge numbers of spectators who turned out to watch and thank them for their co-operation with the marshals who were having a busy time. We apologise for the long delay and the eventual cancellation of stage 4 but unfortunately the reason came down to something that was out with our control. We offer our congratulations to Alasdair McRae in winning the rally and also to all the various class and award winners. We also would like to congratulate Dave Weston on his SRC title. Once again thank you to all and we hope to see you all again next year.

The habits and histories of tribes have proven Eyre correct. Somehow or other I do not fear death itself. For ‘with adverse fate we best can cope/ when all we prize has fled’. That frontier is not a hard line but always seems in a bad mood because the sea is so dark.

Date: 2nd August 2016 - Marshall Ward (NCI, Chair) - Aidan Heerdegen (ARCCSS) - Nic Hannah (ARCCSS/Breakaway Labs) - Justin Freeman (BoM) - Russ Fiedler and Matt Chamberlain (CSIRO Hobart) Agreed to have monthly videoconference meetings. COSIMA model definitions on website - Who is the audience? Agreed should pitch it at novice researcher/student with no links to existing community - Should start by using ourselves as the audience, define them for our use and expand from there - First test case should be the ACCESS-OM-025 (Quarter degree MOM+CICE+OASIS-mct) - CICE is currently housed on CWS github repo - Agreed we need consolidated location for model code. Nic suggested a git repo pulling in model components using submodules. This makes it clean to install and allows for control of versions via explicit commits or tags - COSIMA name is taken on github, so agreed to use existing OceansAus group - Minimal technical detail on website, instead point to github repo - Data store for model input files – decided to use the ua8 Ramadda location which is currently used for MOM5 test cases - Need data versioning - Need example outputs, and timings. Direct users to run the model and compare their outputs and timings to those supplied to verify model integrity and performance - Need continuous integration to test against these outputs. Nic currently running a dozen test cases on a Jenkins server for MOM5. Can add these tests too. - Essential to allow upgrading of model components with confidence they have not affected model integrity and performance. - Desirable to also have related tools and utilities on the OceansAus github site - Concerns that the site collect crufty tools, so make some standard for what constitutes a repo: utility, support and documentation? - How do we support these models? Decided the existing MOM mailing list would suffice for general user questions. Stephen Griffies has been interested in supporting a MOM-CICE configuration. Also github issues can be used for specific code issues. - Desirable to have a general mission statement about what the aims of the TWG - Any additional invitees? Perhaps Mirko from the BoM? Open invitation to anyone who wants to attend and contribute General technical discussion - Aidan described progress with improving vertical grid in MOM-SIS 0.1 deg config - Justin working on making his real time flythrough data-vis software available on raijin, Maybe use Russ’ BRAN2015 reanalysis dataset with recent El Nino - Matt is adding sea-ice to the OFAM grid and tuning parameters to reduce SST biases. Turning off neutral physics helped. - Ben Evans wants a WOMBAT test case, perhaps use the 0.25 deg runs Matt did with Paul Spence? - Marshall has updated FMS and he and Nic have used Jenkins testing to find and fix bugs. Close to being added to master branch of MOM5 - A lot of enthusiasm for contributing blog posts to website from technical perspective. - Aidan to add Nic to OceansAus group - Nic to create initial ACCESS-OM-025 repo with submodules for MOM5/CICE/OASIS-mct - Justin volunteered to test out initial model config as “new user” - Marshall to write draft mission statement

Yet another really fucked up Saarland Black Metal cassette. Is their no end? Corneus' Teufelschmand might be my favorite of the bunch, perhaps only because one of these songs is sung by a dog who is credited on the tape cover as "Arko-Guest Growls." Beyond lo-fi, crazy effected vocals and overpowering cheap synths are the hallmark of this scene, and Corneus takes it a step further, ejaculating into brown acid swamps of sonic butt fudge. I want to smoke PCP and stay up all night talking about Josef Goebbels' sex life with Corneus. That's how fucked up this tape is.

(I do features on friday) Come check it out!Thankssassysanctuary.blogspot.com These are great... can I say cute, and spider in the same sentence? Love them! Those are great Jessica! Congrats on the Guest Post at TT&J! Your ideas are fab :) Thanks so much for guest posting. Your tutorial was fabulous. I love your projects and loved having you over!!xoxJen These are just too cute! I'm going over now to see how you did it! These are incredibly cute! And awesome tutorial, by the way!Krista That's a special spider. Congrats! LOVE the spider! These are adorable! These are so amazing! I am making one today, but am I supposed to be having such a tough time with the seed beads? I'd estimate 75% of the seed beads I'm using will not fit on the 20g wire, but I hate choosing a higher gauge because it won't be as sturdy. I've been able to find precious few that have openings large enough to fit on the wire. I had a hard time with about 50% of my first pack of seed beads too! I went back and got a different brand of them with bigger holes and that was much better. :) Shared this tutorial on my blog...love it! Thanks!

     Back in stock. More or less an alter ego of Philly black noise merchants T.O.M.B., Dreadlords emerged a couple of years ago with a uniquely blackened, fucked-up take on ancient blues and folk music, first appearing with a demo that was one of the strangest sounds I'd come across. As a longtime fan of T.O.M.B.'s ghastly black industrial noisescapes, I had certain preconceptions of what another project from those guys would sound like, but they were shattered against the murky, incantatory power of "Going To The Well", still one of my favorite songs from this project, a strange bit of blown-out gothic scum-blues hammered out on amplified banjo that sounded like some deranged cross between Danzig and the murky low-fi cigar-box weirdness of the Negromancy crowd.      The 'Lords finally delivered their first full-length Death Angel, issued on King Dude's label Not Just Religious Music, and it featured almost all of the stuff from that 2013 demo along with a bunch of new songs, and they're all spectacularly fucked up blots of shambling, hallucinatory madness. It's equal parts ancient devilpunk a la some demented take on Bad Seeds-style gutter blues punk, outsider blues and rumbling black noise, a bizarre concoction served up in mostly short blasts of dank, dark blackness, the growled vocals drifting over the reverb-draped sound of distant electric guitar and primitive percussion, hand drums and tortured banjo, all sounding like you're hearing some whiskey-drunk deathcult whipping themselves into a sweaty fervor in some blighted roadhouse on the edge of a charred wasteland. There's also stuff like "I Live In A Cemetery" that sounds like primitive black metal being played by derelict hillbillies on busted guitars, broken amplifiers and someone banging on a ratty, hand-made drum; and the title track works a grittier, more soulful vocal delivery around ominous acoustic guitar, smears of far-off synth and the rattling of bones, almost like some wretched Nephilim-esque death-folk. The album has a hollow, distant feel to the instruments, like you're hearing them clanking and buzzing up from beneath the floorboards, a ramshackle atmosphere that evokes their visions of snake-handlers, Appalachian devil-cults and backwoods blasphemy.

So if you're a rabid GG vinyl collector, there's a good chance that you already have at least most of the EP material gathered together on this cassette, although as I’ll mention momentarily, there's is some rare shit here that even I hadn't come across before. This TPOS tape is a total anomaly. Purported to be a collection of "singles" from Allin's various incarnations throughout the 1980s (although the actual release dates of these EPs frequently date beyond 1990), I haven't been able to find any concrete information on this specific tape anywhere. That said, this is a bulldozer of Allin's signature scatological punk, with some stunningly brain-blasting versions plucked out of the rotting compost heap that is his studio discography. The EP material is smeared across both sides: live recordings of "Dirge" and "Dog Shit" that I think came off of the extremely rare Sickest of The Sick 10", recorded live at Kisha's in Berkeley, CA, on March 17, 1989. That track here titled "Dirge" (which might also be known as "Jesus & Mothers Cunt", but I'm not 100% on that) is one of my fave GG freak-outs, a murky mess of stumbling doped-out freeform punk-sludge / noise-dirge a la Kilslug or Flipper with some demented Greg Ginn-esque guitar skronk whipping everything into a bloody heap, while GG rants and drools and grunts his murderously anti-social and blasphemous stream-of-conscious madness, an almost improvisational meltdown from the whole band; it's a beast, definitely one of the more fucked -up and outre GG Allin jams from the era. The other tune follows some in-the-moment discussion from GG, before we get nuked in the face by a shambling, pissed-off "Dog Shit" that sounds like GG has something crammed down his trachea. Gnarly. Another berserk live recording features "Diarrhea Blues", "Drink Fight And Fuck", "Cock On The Loose" and "Out For Blood" which all appear to be taken from the 1990 Live...Carolina In My Ass 7" that came out on Repo Records. The band sounds a little more demented than usual, rocking out a grueling head-on collision of stomping caveman skuzz and brain-damaged blues-punk boogie, head-bobbon' buzzsaw anthemic HC, some almost Oi!-esque "Cock"-action that is subversively catchy. Blown out and low-fi but completely psychotic, this definitely sounds like a show that I would've killed to be at. Bonus points for the entire additional venue chatter where people are dealing with the aftermath. One of my favorite GG Allin EPs is the one he did with Bulge, "Legalize Murder", "Suck My Ass (It Smells)", "Interior Depths" all coming off the Fudgeworthy Legalize Murder 7" from 1990. Again, sound quality is brittle and harsh, which makes the bat-shit guitar shredding and wood chipper riffs all the better; ferocious speed violence smashing against the noisecore-style nonsense of "Ass" and a radio cue and the barbaric sample -laden and spoken-word-draped industrial dirge-crush of "Depths" that rivals anything from Brainbombs or Nearly Dead or Rectal Hygeniacs, awesome free flowing hate filled misanthropic prose-poetry smeared against the most abrasive kind of avant-hardcore shit-feast. Oh boy. That's tailed by the more straightfo0rward skull-caving punk rock of the 1991 versions of "Violence Now" and "Cock On The Loose" that make up the GG Allin / Antiseen collab 7" on Jettison; better productions and thicker mix doesn't detract from the blinding ugliness of this one bit. And the final track "Fartmaster" is (I think) off the Penis Rising 10" released in '91, which had Allin collaborating to various extents with the Bulge dudes again; it's a pounding sing-a-long that really makes you feel alive again. I did an obscene amount of research on this tape with make heads and tails of what this material is sourced from, so hopefully this breaks down exactly what 7" releases are gathered here. Such is the case with a lot of these old GG tape compilations. That said, this definitely fucked me up in more ways than one. Uncut, unexpurgated transgression.

Date: Tuesday, 05 December 2023 Britain’s Fake ‘Democracy’ Has Now Collapsed Britain’s left-wing Party, Labour, has now disappeared into being a ‘competitor’ ‘against’ Britain’s right-wing Party, the Conservatives, competing for conservative voters, condemning progressive voters, and has abandoned voters who are to the left of center. Voters to the left of center have no longer political representation in either Party. Here is how that result was engineered by Britain’s billionaires (who basically control British politics): On 7 December 2019, the anti-Zionist Jew — i.e., a progressive Jew; i.e., a Jew who opposes any apartheid nation, such as Israel — Tony Greenstein, headlined at al-Jazeera, “Is Jeremy Corbyn a ‘threat’ to British Jews? Corbyn’s opponents cannot defeat his political programme so they attack his character with spurious allegations.” He opened: Since the election of Jeremy Corbyn as its leader in 2015, Britain’s Labour Party has been the target of a sustained campaign to portray it as rife with anti-Semitism. Alongside unfounded accusations that Corbyn himself and his closest allies are “anti-Semites“, it has widely been claimed that under the direction of someone who has spent a lifetime fighting racism, the party has become “institutionally anti-Semitic”. Furthermore, it has even been claimed that a Corbyn government would pose an “existential threat” to Jewish life in this country. Racism and anti-Semitism, unfortunately, still exist in modern Britain. Therefore, it is impossible to claim that any mainstream national political organisation in the United Kingdom, be it Labour, the Conservative Party or the Liberal Democrats, is 100 percent free of members who hold racist or anti-Semitic views. Corbyn acknowledged this, accepting that even “one [incident of anti-Semitism in the party] is one too many” and explained that to him “driving anti-Semitism out of the party for good is a priority”. However, this never was about anti-Semitism which is why nothing he said or did proved enough to convince his detractors. He is promising to take the privatised utilities and the rail companies back into public ownership and tax multinational companies like Google and Amazon which currently pay virtually no tax in the UK. Moreover, he is promising to stop arms sales to Israel and Saudi Arabia and to educate Britain’s youth about their country’s colonial history. Rather than challenging the Labour leader’s policies on fighting poverty and ending Britain’s continuing support for oppressive regimes across the globe, his rivals and critics are focusing their energy on doubling down on their accusations of anti-Semitism. So is the Labour leader, who has an impressive track record of supporting Britain’s Jewish community and standing against anti-Semitism, really an anti-Semite who purposefully filled Britain’s main opposition party with “fellow racists”, or is something else happening here? What we are witnessing today is clearly not an honest expression of concern for Britain’s Jews, but a smear campaign born out of the British establishment’s desire to stop an anti-establishment and anti-Zionist leader from moving in to Number 10 Downing Street. On 23 September 2022, al-Jazeera headlined “Unprecedented leak exposes inner workings of UK Labour Party: The leaked documents, obtained by Al Jazeera, reveal how party officials smear and intimidate rivals.”, and reported that, “In 2019, Corbyn resigned as leader after the party’s defeat in the December general election. He was eventually replaced by Keir Starmer, Britain’s former director of Public Prosecutions. Soon after Starmer became the leader in April 2020, Formby resigned as general secretary. She was replaced by David Evans. The Labour Files reveal that he has continued the McNicol-era hostility towards left-wing members of the party.” So: from having had the most members of any Party under the progressive Corbyn, the Labour Party quickly sank and lost membership, which resulted in a solid string of Conservative Party Governments, so that, now, leftist voters in Britain have actually no one to vote for. On 21 October 2022, Craig Murray headlined “The Party is Over”, and he wrote that, The highly paid political class in charge of each of the UK’s three major political parties detests, despises, distrusts and seeks to discard their own party membership. The Conservative, Labour and SNP [Scottish National Party, in Scotland] elite all view their party members as a potential embarrassment. ... The professionals are to radically limit the options of the members. The Labour Party had under Jeremy Corbyn the largest mass membership of any political party in Europe. The current leadership has succeeded – quite deliberately – in losing half of them. The Labour members elected Keir Starmer on the basis of ten pledges to carry out the kind of left wing policies the Labour membership support. Almost all of those pledges have been summarily broken. We have witnessed the Labour leadership refuse to endorse strikes which are the main avenue for working class resistance, ban its MPs from the picket lines, and refuse to oppose massive Tory attacks on civil liberties at home, while vying to be the most enthusiastic zionists and warmongers abroad. Labour members are summarily expelled for connection to legitimate socialist organisations. This is what Labour Party members voted for: This is typical of what they got: Keir Starmer’s Shadow Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, not only wants to deport more immigrants than the Tories, she has for a decade been proclaiming that Labour will cut more benefits than the Tories. The disjunction between what Labour Party members want – and were promised by Starmer [in order for him] to get elected – and what Labour MPs want, could not be clearer. … Starmer is delighted to have shed hundreds of thousands of Corbyn supporting members, to pursue instead corporate and billionaire money. … The UK’s political parties are becoming uniformly right-wing organisations which represent a very narrow spectrum of views – those of the corporate sector and billionaire donors. … Irrespective of what Labour and Conservative Party members would like to offer, the electorate is likely to be presented with Sunak or Starmer, two people so close in political outlook and policy there really is little point in turning up to vote. On 3 December 2023, Reuters headlined “Labour leader Starmer praises Thatcher in bid to woo UK Conservative voters”, and reported: Keir Starmer, leader of Britain's main opposition Labour Party, has praised former Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, a deeply unpopular figure among many Labour supporters, as he seeks to woo Conservative voters before an election expected next year. Starmer, whose left-wing party is ahead of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's Conservatives by some 20 points in opinion polls, is seeking to cement that advantage by broadening Labour's appeal to attract voters who have spurned the party in national elections over the past 13 years. Thatcher, dubbed the "Iron Lady" by the UK press at the time, was Britain's Conservative leader from 1979 to 1990. She was an extremely divisive figure, hailed by some but loathed by many on the left for crushing trade unions and privatizing swathes of British industry. She died in 2013. "Every moment of meaningful change in modern British politics begins with the realisation that politics must act in service of the British people, rather than dictating to them," Starmer wrote in an article for the Sunday Telegraph newspaper. Starmer headlined then in the Conservative Party’s main newspaper, the Telegraph, “Voters have been betrayed on Brexit and immigration. I stand ready to deliver”, and he opened: It is too easy to look at Britain today and throw your hands up in despair. Families across the country are bombarded with daily reminders of our current malaise: crumbling public services that no longer serve the public, families weighed down by the anxiety of spiralling mortgage bills and food prices, neighbourhoods plagued by crime and anti-social behaviour. Any one of these individually would be cause for outrage. Taken together they merge into something more insidious: the idea that our country no longer works for those it is supposed to. That sense of a once great country now set on a path of decline has been sharpened by our political culture. The vast majority of the public don’t think about Westminster much. Why would they? At a time when people are looking for answers to the deep challenges of our age, they see a politics too large in its hectoring and interfering, too small in its ambition and ability. In these difficult conditions, the current Government resembles nothing so much as the sinking Mary Rose: overburdened, incompetently handled, plunging into the depths. Every moment of meaningful change in modern British politics begins with the realisation that politics must act in service of the British people, rather than dictating to them. Margaret Thatcher sought to drag Britain out of its stupor by setting loose our natural entrepreneurialism. Tony Blair reimagined a stale, outdated Labour Party into one that could seize the optimism of the late 90s. … Starmer is promising, to Conservative Party voters, that he will carry on in the tradition of Thatcher who despised workers and raised their (but NOT billionaires’) taxes, and in the tradition of the conservative Labourite (and sponsor of Starmer) Tony Blair who had joined with America’s George W. Bush in invading Iraq on the basis of lies; and Starmer closed his opinion-article by saying, “That’s why we extend the hand of friendship to you, no matter where you are or who you have voted for in the past. National renewal demands it. It [neoliberalism-neoconservatism] is only together that we will build the better future we all want.” Starmer wants leftists to vote for his conservative Party, instead of for the other one (the one that calls itself the Conservatives). Similarly, America’s ‘democracy’ has collapsed with two political Parties, the Democrats and Republicans, who both vote in the U.S. Congress almost 100% for, and run the White House for, the permanent-warfare economy (Lockheed Martin, etc.), which leaves less and less each year for the American people, in order for the U.S. Government to have more and more each year for overthrowing foreign Governments that The West’s billionaires don’t like, and that they do demand to become replaced. A two-Party dictatorship is merely a lying ‘democratic’ or ‘republican’, or ‘labour’ or “Tory,” liberal right-wing dictatorship, liberal-fascism, and this is now what The West holds out to the rest of the world, as being ‘democracy’, which foreign governments supposedly should take as their model. It’s just dictatorship under another name. And, under any name, it is far right but propagandized with liberal clichés instead of merely the old overtly conservative ones. It is designed to fool the public that both of the Parties’ billionaires despise. Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.

SSI has a proven upgrade method that efficiently and carefully upgrades your Odoo system. The major phases are: When you are ready to start the process you let us know and SSI creates a test upgrade request. 1. Odoo processes the request automatically by running the database through an upgrade script, which takes between 20 and 120 minutes. 2. Odoo delivers a test database back to SSI. 3. SSI tests your database for possible discrepancies. 4. If there are any discrepancies, SSI developers work to eliminate items that block the database from opening. 5. SSI fixes the issues, does internal testing and sets up User Acceptance Testing (UAT) 6. Once you have completed the testing and are happy with the results, you decide on a date and time when you stop users from accessing Odoo, freeze all data entries, and pick a go-live date. 7. SSI delivers the production database through the automated process. 8. SSI restores the database to your Production environment a few short hours later and you continue working on the newly upgraded database. This phase allows you to review an upgraded version of your database without affecting your production database in any way. We suggest that you run the test upgrade process at least once, but you can do it as many times as you need (one at a time). Once you receive your upgraded test database, check that all data, processes, and functionality are still correct and working as expected. If you do find discrepancies, report your issues and request a new test database when the reported issues are fixed in the upgrade script. If you do not find any discrepancies, you can move on to the upgrade of your production UAT (User Acceptance Testing) Test scenarios Basic Test Checklist - Are there views that are deactivated in your test database but active in your production database? - Are your usual views still displayed correctly? - Are your reports (invoice, sales order, etc.) correctly generated? - Are your website pages working correctly? - Are you able to create and modify records? (sales orders, invoices, purchases, users, contacts, companies, etc.) - Are there any issues with your mail templates? - Are there any issues with saved translations? - Are your search filters still present? - Can you export your data? Example of end-to-end testing - Checking a random product in your product catalog and comparing its test and production data to verify everything is the same (product category, selling price, cost price, vendor, accounts, routes, etc.). - Buying this product (Purchase app). - Confirming the reception of this product (Inventory app). - Checking if the route to receive this product is the same in your production database (Inventory app). - Selling this product (Sales app) to a random customer. - Opening your customer database (Contacts app), selecting a customer (or company), and checking its data. - Shipping this product (Inventory app). - Checking if the route to ship this product is the same as in your production database (Inventory app). - Validating a customer invoice (Invoicing or Accounting app). - Crediting the invoice (issuing a credit note) and checking if it behaves as in your production database. - Checking your reports’ results (Accounting app). - Randomly checking your taxes, currencies, bank accounts, and fiscal year (Accounting app). - Making an online order (Website apps) from the product selection in your shop until the checkout process and checking if everything behaves as in your production database. This list is not exhaustive. Extend the example to your other apps based on your use of Odoo. Every business and organization has its own operational needs and has to test its specific Odoo database individually. We recommend you look at the test scenario for further information. The production upgrade request is when you decide to upgrade your current database with all your production data (invoices, VAT returns, inventories, current orders) to a new version of your choice. After your tests are completed to your satisfaction, submit the request to upgrade your with our project manager. Post Go-live support SSI is available for assistance with items that arise after go-live from helping take full advantage of new features and functionality to other business transformations from customer growth. With a customer specific processes analysis a high-level estimate can be provided to assist in tracking progress during your upgrade. The outline of our project plan steps is in the chart below.

A great debate exists today regarding whether our thoughts can change our lives, also known as the law of attraction. I believe the missing link in this debate is a more holistic approach to mind bod role our The study appeared in the Journal of Applied Psychology: Health and Well-being, is the most comprehensive review thus far of scientific research linking health and happiness. Its lead author, University of Illinois professor emeritus of psychology, Ed Dienr, who was also a scientist for the Gallup organization, the viewed long-term studies of human subjects, experimental animal and human trials, and studies that measure the health status of people stressed by natural events. Dr. Dyer said. “The general conclusion from each type of study is that your subjective well-being–that is, feeling positive about your life, not stressed out, not depressed–contributes to both longevity and better health among healthy populations.” One study determined after following 5000 university students for more than 40 years, for example, that those who were the most pessimistic as students died earlier than their peers. Another longer-term study that followed 180 Catholic nuns from early adulthood to senior citizenship found that those who wrote autobiographies that were positive in their early 20s tended to live longer than those who focus on negativity in their accounts of their early lives. There are a few exceptions, however. Most of the long-term studies have determined that anxiety, depression, and a lack of enjoyment of one’s daily activities, as well as pessimism are all linked to higher rates of disease and a shorter life. Animal studies showed that there is a significant link between poor health and stress. Research in which animals receive the same care but differ in their stress levels as well as an abundance of nest mate in their cages, for example, have found that stressed animals are much more susceptible to heart disease, have weaker immune systems, and tend to die sooner than those living in less crowded conditions. Human studies have determined that positive, optimistic moods lower the levels of stress related hormones, promote a quicker recovery of the heart. After exercise, and increase immune system function. Other studies have shown that marital conflicts and high hostility in married couples are linked with slow wound healing and impaired immune system response. Well, happiness might not prevent or cure disease, become healthy findings that positive emotions and life enjoyment contribute to enhance health and a longer life span is stronger than the data linking obesity to read juiced longevity, Diener said. Dr. Diener said, I was almost shocked and certainly surprised to see the consistency of the data. All of these different kind of studies point to the same conclusion: that health and then longevity in turn are influenced by our mood states. “Happiness is no magic bullet, but the evidence is clear and compelling that it changes your odds of getting disease or dying young. “Although there are a handful of studies that find opposite effects, the overwhelming majority of studies support the conclusion and happiness is associated with health and longevity. Current health recommendations focus on four things: avoid obesity, eat right, don’t smoke, and exercise. It made the time to add ‘be happy and avoid chronic anger and depression’ to the list.” Source: applied psychology: health and well-being

DUNSTAN BABY LANGUAGE The Beauty of Baby Babble Baby babble is one of the most wonderful sounds in the world. Not only is it extraordinarily cute and heart-melting, it is the very foundation for every piece of communication that will ever take place between you. Baby Babble is the foundation stone for learning how to talk. It’s amazing how the ability to make a squeal can absolutely amaze your baby. You’ve seen it, right? She will make a particular sound, pause for a second while she listens, and then bursts out with joy and wonder at what she hath wrought. Newborns can only focus for a very limited time. Perhaps after a few minutes she might start be getting a bit overwhelmed. You might start hearing ‘Heh’, which is the signal to calm things down a bit and make sure she isn’t overheated or annoyed by anything in the environment. (Inside our courses, we have plenty of videos of babies saying ‘Heh’ so you can really learn the different ways babies vocalise the word, and the circumstances you might start hearing it.) Or perhaps after a bit of play your little one might start becoming tired, or hungry. Well, don’t worry, there are baby language words for both of those needs. Which means you can quickly address the correct issue. And not fumble around trying to figure out what you need to do. After a bit of a rest, hopefully you can get back to the babble. Because babble’s brilliant. And beautiful too. LEARN MORE ABOUT THE BABY LANGUAGE Follow us on Instagram!

In light of Covid-19, Gravitas Ventures is moving its romantic comedy, Bad Therapy, straight to VOD for purchase on April 17th Bad Therapy stars Alicia Silverstone and Rob Corddry as a couple who desperately need couples therapy but pick the absolute worst therapist. Tag: Rob Corddry Adult Swim apparently loves having the absurdly unique Childrens Hospital on their schedule as much as its fans enjoy watching it. The series – about a self-involved group of doctors who live for their personal lives, only occasionally pausing to treat sick children, has been picked up for a seventh season. Children beware! Details follow […] The trailer for Hot Tub Time Machine 2 looks good enough to give us hope that it won’t be a mere retread of the original. Now we have a new poster that suggests that the sequel might just be taking the mickey out of the whole sequel concept. Soak Harder? Absolutely! Check it out after […] The boys are back in time! (with apologies to Thin Lizzy…) This time, they have to save Lou’s life – he’s been shot! And, oh, yeah, make America happen! Just another day relaxing in the Hot Tub Time Machine (2). Check out the trailer after the jump. Hot Tub Time Machine 2 opens on February […] Annie writes a ‘mommy blog’ and her latest entry is bemoaning the lack of opportunities to have sex with her husband and recalling the way they screwed like bunnies when they were first together. One night she gets the kids off to Grandma’s place for a sleepover, but she and Jay can’t quite get things […] It’s not often that a movie title tells you exactly what you’re going to get in the title – and sometimes that can be a bad thing [*cough*Snakes on a Plane*cough*]. In the case of Hot tub Time Machine, though, the result is a comedy that’s both subtle and vulgar – and has heart. In Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle, the pair’s craving for a specific kind of fast food was turned into an epic quest – call it the stoner version of Homer’s Odyssey. Harold and Kumar Escape From Guantanamo Bay turns them into the mutant spawn of The Fugitive and Hope & Crosby’s “Road” movies. […]

Show All Answers No, not earlier. They can and should be submitted together, at the same time with the competition materials, by September 2nd. There is no need for this competition to register prior to submission. Yes, alternatives to conventional concrete foundations (provided that they satisfy the BC Building Code) could help win more points, for example, on eco-design (if it can be demonstrated that the carbon footprint is lower) and on construction affordability. Yes, that is highly encouraged to demonstrate your achievement of the evaluation criterion of adaptability to different sites. The successful designs are to be flexible and adaptable to different lot configurations and topographies of City of Nelson. Lot depth is typically 120 ft. and width is often 50 to 75 feet, but we don’t have quite the same ‘typical’ lot width or configuration as other cities, which you can see by looking at the cadastral map layer (go to www.bcassessment.ca and start poking around; try 418 Robson St, 711 Regent St, or 1808 Fort Sheppard for example). Most of the city is R1-zoned. The neighbourhood next to the downtown is zoned R3 for higher density and relaxed setback/lot coverage requirements. These are the only two zones to consider for this competition. The complete zoning bylaw and interactive webmap can be found at www.nelson.ca/zoning. The height and setback restrictions are contained in the LWH guide at www.nelson.ca/lwh_guide/ For new single-family (principal) homes in the R1 zone: Yes, any covered portion of the carport is included in the footprint calculation. Eaves and roof overhangs are excluded from building footprint calculations, unless that overhang happens to be a carport. There doesn’t appear to be any restriction on the number of entries in the contest rules, therefore yes, we will accept multiple submissions. You state "A design board....including high-level specifications indicating materials used, compliance with zoning, the City's laneway house design guidelines, the BC Building Code..." for the First Round, but in the Second Round (e) is where you ask for "Specifications/stats indicating compliance with zoning, the City's laneway housing design guidelines, the BC Building Code, and other relevant information" again. Therefore, what is the expected level of specificity in the first round? Further, is there a limit on the number of pages to be submitted? Is all information meant to be compiled on one 11x17 design board, including the written description and the minimum 1 exterior design perspective? Is there a maximum number of sheets/pages that can be submitted? Lastly, is there an expectation to submit based on various site conditions and zoning (R1 and R3?) We expect most people to submit at the last minute, on September 2nd, therefore that decision would be made on September 3rd. Based on the number of inquiries, I would be surprised if we felt we needed to extend the deadline, but of course we cannot close that door quite yet. Is an eave/roof overhang over entrances/porches/steps/patios/decks under 0.6m from grade part of the building footprint? No, they are not part of the building footprint. In fact, the building footprint excludes eaves, open air porches, balconies, open air decks, and exterior stairways altogether, regardless of height (see definition of “building footprint” in the Zoning Bylaw). AIBC (Architectural Institute of British Columbia) has, in writing, reviewed this competition and approves it for participation by its members, as well as designers. 01. What height of a sloped ceiling is consider to be included in the "Gross floor area"? 02. How, and when, do competitors "complete and sign the entrance and declaration of ownership and rights form"? 03. Also, can you please clarify your posted answer (2nd bullet) to question #7 online? Your answer states: "Length: it is all to fit onto the design board, except that the written description..." However, under Submission Requirements and Rules; 5c states: "In addition to inclusion in a design board, any images shall be submitted separately in .jpeg or similar format; one version high-resolution and another low-resolution version that is easier to email." The word "images" is plural. This rule seems to allow additional images and pages to be submitted. If so, is there a limit? Gross floor area: the definition thereof in the Zoning Bylaw excludes crawl spaces, subdecks, carports, and parking garages from counting towards GFA. The minimum ceiling height is 1.95 metres. Below that, it is considered a crawl space. The entrance form is to be submitted with the first-round submission, thus before September 2nd. Apologies for the confusion. All images submitted are to fit onto the design board and be included on the design board. We are simply asking that you send along those same images in JPEG format, as well. On page 4 of the brief it notes that one of the top three prizes will be designated to a local submission. Does this mean that local entries are preferred or are required for the competition award to move forward? Are other teams from out of province welcome to submit or is this intended to be a regional competition? Entrants from across Canada are welcome to participate. The paragraph you are referencing says that if there are at least three entrants from the region, then the Design Review Panel will be “expected to” designate at least one regional entrant. Therefore, the competition does not require any local entries, but if there are multiple local entries, assuming that they are quality entries, the Design Review Panel will be encouraged to give one of them extra consideration. It would be inaccurate to state that local entries are preferred. Ultimately, the Design Review Panel has discretion and is not required to aware a prize locally.

Now, I'm not denying that Edward II was an appalling king. He didn't have any of the qualities required in a 14th century ruler, and it was surely the best thing for England that he was deposed and replaced by his son, a much more competent ruler. However, I don't believe that Edward was a bad man, and in fact many of his character traits, though incomprehensible to his contemporaries, are very attractive to the modern mind. For example, Edward had a general preference for the company of peasants over his nobles - a fact heavily criticised by chroniclers of the time, but to a 21st century observer, a king with the 'common touch' who could communicate with people much further down the social scale seems much more attractive. Edward loved pastimes such as building walls, digging ditches, thatching roofs and shoeing horses - considered odd back then, and even into the 20th century, when some historians assumed that these interests were indicative of low intelligence. I hope we are more enlightened than that nowadays! Personally, I love the fact that Edward enjoyed rowing and swimming, and sailing his barge along the River Thames, buying cabbages from peasants on the banks to make soup with. Am I the only person who finds that extremely endearing behaviour in a king?! What come down the centuries to me are Edward's strongly emotive character traits, which are really the main reason why I'm so interested in him. He comes across to me as a real person I can imagine knowing (and liking) which most of the other medieval kings of England don't (I find a lot to admire in Edward III, for example, but his personality is a closed book to me.) Edward was fiercely loyal and generous to those he loved, not perhaps the most sensible trait in a king but attractive in a man, and he had a huge capacity to love and be loved. The 'wrong' people, maybe, but who of us can choose who we love? He loved music, dancing, romances and watching plays: signs of a cultured man, surely? As Caroline Bingham, one of his biographers, points out, other historians often sneeringly comment that Edward was followed everywhere by 'Genoese fiddlers' which sounds frivolous, but they could equally well be described as 'Italian musicians', which sounds cultured. Edward had a great sense of humour, as is proved by the many records of payment to people who had made him laugh, and he greeted the impostor John of Powderham in 1318 (John had claimed to be the righful king of England) with the words 'Welcome, my brother'. (Edward apparently wanted to make John a court jester, but Isabella and various nobles demanded his execution.) Edward was mostly an easy-going man, although prone to violent outbursts of temper (like all his family). The last few years of his reign, from 1322 to 1326, were, however, a tyranny. It's tempting to see the hand of Hugh Despenser the Younger, who was king of England in all but name, here - this time is demonstrably different from the rest of Edward's reign. Edward was not much interested in governing, and seems to have been happy to let Despenser rule the kingdom however he saw fit - presumably because of the personal (and probably sexual) hold Despenser had over him. Although a disastrous general whose campaigns in Scotland ended in failure, Edward was not lacking in personal bravery, and a contemporary chronicler states that Edward fought like a lion at Bannockburn in 1314 - although he is often accused of cowardice by modern writers and commentators who claim that he 'ran away'. Surely leaving the field was better, though, than being captured by the Scots (and apparently the Earl of Pembroke had to drag him unwillingly from the battlefield)? If he had been captured, no doubt modern writers would castigate him for his stupidity, as well as his cowardice. Poor Edward II: damned if he did, damned if he didn't. I think he must be the only man in history condemned as a pervert for NOT having sex with a 12-year-old girl - Isabella was almost certainly only 12 at the time of their wedding in January 1308, and they didn't conceive their first child till they'd been married a little over 4 years. Edward apparently preferred the company of Gaveston, but who would any other 23-year-old man prefer to spend time with: a 12-year-old girl he'd never met before, or a man of his own age he'd known half his life? Edward had 3 older brothers - John, 1266-1271; Henry, 1268-1274; and Alfonso, earl of Chester, 1273-1284. If any of them had lived, Edward would never have been king, and I get the strong impression that he would have much preferred that. He would have been in his element as a country knight, building walls and digging ditches and such like! It's hardly his fault that he was so unsuited to the role of king - it's not as though he had any choice in the matter. He was the eldest surviving son of his father, and therefore he had to be king, whether he liked it or not. The same with his marriage: Edward and Isabella's union was arranged by their fathers when he was about 16 and Isabella about 5, and Edward had to marry her, or almost certainly face a war against her father, Philip IV. Isabella gets a lot of sympathy these days for taking a lover after years of marital unhappiness - fine, but Edward still gets a lot of criticism for his own presumed infidelities, which hardly seems fair. The attitude often seems to be - Isabella was beautiful, therefore Edward 'should' have loved her, and if he didn't there was something wrong with him. It doesn't work like that, though! You don't automatically love someone just because she's beautiful, and in an arranged marriage, it's hardly surprising that people find love elsewhere (and Edward had clearly loved Gaveston for many years before he married Isabella). Yet even in our supposedly enlightened times, many people seem to believe that Isabella's adultery was heterosexual and therefore OK, but Edward's preference for men was perverted. Even Alison Weir trots out a similar line in her recent bio of Isabella. So there you are. Edward II, the disastrous king, but very likeable man! He had many faults, but these have been overstated - none of us is perfect! One historian, in a thunderingly 19th century way, called Edward II the greatest failure of his father Edward I; he also claimed that Edward I's eldest 3 sons 'were worthy to have outlived him, while Edward II was worthy never to have been born at all'. Edward II's 3 elder brothers are totally obscure, boys who died at the ages of 5, 6 and 10: how can anybody possibly know what kind of kings they might have made? Maybe they would have been even worse! And secondly, which of us has the right to say that someone should never have been born? (Except for people like Hitler, possibly). Now in the 21st century, the time is long overdue for us to treat Edward II a bit more kindly, and a bit less judgmentally.

Comparisons with Burgundy are unnecessary for the wines of Hamilton Russell, says Sarah Marsh MW. These “exceptionally good” Hemel-en-Aarde Pinot Noirs are their own, South African thing. With the end of Apartheid in 1991, a young Anthony Hamilton Russell returned to South Africa, eager to capitalize on the new business opportunities that emerged under Nelson Mandela’s leadership. Aged just 29, he took over a 170ha (420-acre) farm, which lies in the far south of the Cape winelands in the area of Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, close to the sea behind the fishing village of Hermanus. The estate, which was established by his father Tim Hamilton Russell, was planted with a wide variety of vines. It was managed as a sideline and had yet to turn a profit. Anthony decided to focus on the varieties producing the most interesting wine: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. He quickly identified a stony, shale-derived, and clay-rich parcel of 52ha (128 acres) in “the old sheep and wheat-planting soils.” Losing no time, he ripped up the vines in the sandstone band separating this clay parcel and the coast, which he felt produced “unintellectual wines,” and in 1997 the clay-based parcel was registered as a single estate: Hamilton Russell Vineyards. Hamilton Russell Vineyards’ Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are frequently praised for their Burgundian style, something Anthony Russell was eager to emphasize when presenting several older vintages of Pinot Noir in London. I fully appreciate why Anthony likes to compare his Pinot Noir to Burgundy, and in particular to Gevrey-Chambertin and Morey-St-Denis, but I’m not quite sure how helpful it is. The essence of Burgundian wine is terroir—wine that embodies a sense of place. If his Pinot Noir from Hemel-en-Aarde Valley tastes like Burgundy, it is intrinsically un-Burgundian. Hamilton Russell’s reputation for making wine in a Burgundian style is something I recall from visiting the estate in the late 1990s. I was on the hunt for New World Pinot Noir that wasn’t all about the variety. The problem with Pinot Noir from the New World in the ’90s was a brash varietal fruitiness, lack of dimension, and an overriding impression of sweetness, whereas Hamilton Russell wines showed a step toward something more restrained and structured, fresh and energetic. They had something besides fruit—the beginning of a terroir expression, perhaps? I like the freshness and energy in their wine and the saline tang on many vintages. The prevailing wind is southeast, coming off the cold ocean. The acidity is not high, but there is a sensation of freshness. Anthony felt that the Winkler Index could not be applied to South Africa and devised his own system to measure average temperatures. He uses it to demonstrate that the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley is cooler over the growing season than Burgundy, which has two hotter months in the middle, with cooler shoulder months, while Hemel-en-Aarde Valley has a more even temperature moderated by the influence of the sea. Perhaps surprising, but I was more surprised when Anthony airily dismissed the significance of the cooler climate on the style of his wine: “It is not because we are cooler or among the most southerly wine estates in South Africa. No; it’s the clay content of the soil.” Anthony explains the clay soils here have a high level of iron, which is responsible for the firm structure of Hamilton Russell Pinot—a character he describes as “mineral hardness. […] We work the wine very gently but generally get a more muscular style.” He draws a comparison with the soils of Pommard. This has more relevance than the Gevrey/Morey-St-Denis reference, particularly if he were to specify the south side of Pommard, but again I would say it’s unnecessary. To my mind, the style is clearly defined by the site—the iron-rich clay, the cold wind, and the sunshine. The wine has a strong sense of place, and for that reason is certainly Burgundian in spirit. It is worth remarking that there is no limestone—the bedrock of Burgundy—in the soil of Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. Experimentation and evolution Anthony decided to mark 40 years of Hamilton Russell Vineyards with a special tasting of his Pinot Noir. And so we gathered in the illustrious setting of One Great George Street in London to taste a vertical—not the whole shebang, but seven examples. The first two, from the 1980s, were made by Tim Hamilton Russell. These were much better than I expected, since they came from the period of 1981 to 1985 during which, Anthony admits, the fruit was picked before full phenolic ripeness and received abundant new oak. They showed both the fragility and complexity of age. In the early days, the vineyard was planted with a Swiss clone, BK5, using cuttings from Rustenberg. Although Hamilton Russell were pioneers of Pinot Noir in South Africa, they were not the first. From 1986 to 1990, this clone displayed increasing difficulties in ripening fully and made wines that Anthony says “aged well but are lean, as opposed to textured.” We weren’t shown any examples from the period between 1990 and 1995, during which some of the vineyard was replanted with Dijon selection clones, while the remaining Swiss clone perked up and the riper fruit was cloaked in new oak. Over the decades, Anthony reflects on the fact that they have both underoaked and overoaked their wine. We were told the estate was on a steady incline through the 1990s. We tasted the 1997, but unfortunately the sample I had was corked. By 2005, the (surprising) practice of sterile filtering was abandoned, and the clonal emphasis moved to 115, resulting in richer wine. In 2014, the vineyard converted to organic farming and an ever-greater focus on biodiversity. In 2015, Anthony began experimenting with whole-bunch fermentation—just a little—and has settled on approximately 15 percent. Higher than this resulted in appealing aromatics, but they didn’t last, and there were unwanted phenolics, which he felt would not help the longevity of the wine. The cold soak is short, and if the natural yeasts don’t perform, they have their own strain, called Sauvage, cultivated from the winery. This has been packaged commercially and will finish the job. In some vintages, the yeast conversion of sugar to alcohol is better (2015 hits 14.1% ABV), while in others less so (2020 is 12.8% ABV). Over the years, Anthony has pulled back the oak influence. Burgundian cooper François Frères supplies very lightly toasted barriques, just off blond. The barrel-aging is surprisingly short, just ten months, because Anthony finds the wine dries out if left longer. The most recent evolution is the move to barreling down cleaner wine. Now, the just-fermented wine is settled for two or three days. Before this move, there were experiments over several years with more precise racking during barrel-aging, but it didn’t achieve the desired effect. The decision to settle the wine was made after tasting the 2020 post-malolactic fermentation. Anthony felt the aromatics had disappeared. With fewer solids in the aging, the 2021 “is fresher and has more perfume.” And Anthony Hamilton Russell is in pursuit of fruit and perfume. “Spice and structure we take for granted, and with this we stand apart from most Pinot Noir, with the exception of Burgundy, which is fruit-driven.” It is an irony that the quintessential fruit and floral characters of Pinot Noir, which are captured so readily throughout the New World, are elusive on the clay soils of Hemel-en-Aarde. The Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge appellation was created in 2009. Anthony drove the subdivision of the WO (Wine of Origin) region into three distinct areas, also including Hemel-en-Aarde Valley and Upper Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. This must have been a significant milestone in providing a structure through which to define and identify the terroir in more detail. We tasted the 2018 and 2021 vintages. These were a step up from the 2001 and 2009, displaying greater complexity. I enjoyed the muscular character of the 2018. Anthony admits that 2017 is generally a more respected vintage but feels that “2018 is more representative of the Hamilton Russell tannin line.” The 2021 is still very young but, for me, the best wine of the flight. The depth and texture of tannin is more sophisticated. It is a sensual wine in which sumptuousness and elegance combine well. It seemed to me that I needed to taste more recent vintages to get a better sense of the progression, so Anthony kindly sent a further five wines, which we tasted together via Zoom and which are included in the tasting notes opposite (where it seemed fairer and more relevant to provide scores for only the most recent seven vintages). Anthony likens the 2021, his most recent vintage, to Vosne-Romanée. I say, Forget about the Côte d’Or! Maybe the 2021 is the finest expression of Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge. If so, it should be celebrated as such for its expression of terroir. Perhaps the true identity of Hemel-en-Aarde Ridge lies between the 2018 and the 2021, depending on the vintage; and if so—after 40 years of work—these exceedingly good wines are a much more useful reference for the expression of this appellation than somewhere in France. Tasting Hamilton Russell Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 1981 The vines used for this wine were only four years old. Anthony remarks, “The vines always had an old-vine character,” which he attributes to the shallow soil. “This is responsible for the very open canopy of our vines and the low yields,” which are less than 20hl/ha. There are only five bottles left of this vintage, and two were generously used for this tasting. It was brave of Anthony to show them so publicly, but they didn’t let him down. The color is tawny and pale rimmed. The bouquet is gamey and caramel at first, developing spice, walnut, and smoky notes. It didn’t instantly fade away. The fragile palate has a silky texture. Umami characters blend with sun-dried tomato and herbal piquancy. It finishes on a fresh, light, dry, and salty note. Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 1983 This has a richer, sweeter bouquet. Both nose and palate feel riper. It’s quite bold for an old wine, flexing a bit of muscle. The tertiary and coffee notes of a mature wine are bolstered with some fruit—a good thing, too, because the tannins are still quite apparent. It has punchy vibrancy. Its robust, fuller palate contrasts with the more ethereal 1981. Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2001 An assertive Marmite bouquet, which I like. On the palate, the savory character is draped in a sweet and spicy cloak. It’s rich and quite dense. The tannins are quite thick and tacky. There is a darker, more austere note beneath the rich, full body of the mid-palate. The balance is made with tannin rather than acidity. The finish is straight, with a hard charcoal note. Maybe this is the “mineral hardness” that Anthony finds in his Pinot. Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2009 A salted caramel and miso aroma. Super-smooth glide into the palate. This has shoulders. The breadth and density are enveloped in a glossy cloak. I like the spiciness—flecked with toasted cumin and fennel seed. Towards the finish, the tannin hits a firm and slightly raw edge. The finish is quite well sustained, though the sweet/sourness is awkward. Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2014 Garden compost on the nose, with a hint of dried flowers and horse’s hoof. Zesty and energetic onto the palate. I like the straight, bright, and light-bodied feel, with its clipped edges. Fine-grained tannins and a keen, salty tang to finish. It breezes across the palate and has a chilliness that appeals to me. Seems a good moment to drink it. 2022–26. | 90 Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2015 Sumptuous, salted caramel aroma. So expressive. Warmly inviting, almost butterscotch, which carries into the creamy, textured mid-palate. Whereas 2014 has light austerity, this is forward, with an embracing richness of fruit and a full, luscious mouthfeel. But don’t settle in too quickly. There is grunt and power here, too, and the tannins bite on the finish, where there is much more edge and an assertive and persistent kick. Should age well. 2022–30. | 91 Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2016 This was another short season like 2015, with an early harvest, but as Anthony points out, there are no heatwaves with the proximity to the sea. Savory, spicy aromas of toasted cumin and ground coriander, but there is dried raspberry and dried rose petal, too. Quite dense and more of a block on the palate. The tannins have a burr. (Anthony says they are more rustic.) It is rugged after the 2015 and a bit disjointed. On the finish, those spices combine with a tart licorice note. I hope that this wine will mellow, but I am not sure that it will age quite as gracefully as the 2014. 2022–26. | 88 Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2017 Anthony comments, “The 2017 forced elegance in South Africa, on an industry not known for it.” He feels that South Africa is still trying to separate from the forward fruitiness of Australian wine, with which many producers are still beguiled. He feels that the 2017 bears some resemblance to the 2008, 2011, and 2014, which are all lighter-bodied vintages and seem better with age. More upright but alluring, with light notes of mint and thyme. Slips serenely onto the palate, straight and fluid and seamless. Threaded with glimmering freshness to a delicate but persistent finish, with fine salinity and aromatic shades of the garrigue. Beautifully balanced. What a delight. My favorite. 2022–30+. | 93 Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2018 Anthony comments, “This shows the spice, tannin, and muscularity of Hamilton Russell—something that is our signature and marks us out from the rest of New World Pinot Noir.” The youthful aroma shows medicinal notes, black cherry, and Marmite—definitely earthy—while the palate is punchy on the attack and firmly structured. There is up-front fruitiness, too, which combines with meaty muscle and good depth. The assertive tannins certainly need time. Tacky tannins. Fresh, too. Savory, coffee-mocha finish. No lack of oomph. I would leave this vigorous wine for a couple of years, though it will develop for much longer. 2022–32. | 92 Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2020 This is quite reduced on the nose. There is juicy red fruit on the palate, but it is a bit stifled. It is compact and has good tension. Clack of tannin. Savory miso notes and a quartz salinity. It’s just a little hard and unforgiving for now. I tried it over the following few days, during which the texture softened and it opened to become more generous, albeit with edginess. The succulence of damson fruits combines with an iodine bloody note on the finish. 2024–35. | 92–93 Hamilton Russell Vineyards Pinot Noir 2021 Such an inviting aroma: red cherry and fresh rose petal. It is pure and perfumed, and those scented notes are carried through to the palate, where juicy generosity and the exuberance of youth are clearly apparent. It is more fruit-driven and—dare I say it?—seems more New World than previous vintages. A rather delicious meeting of Old World and New. The texture has a supple richness and depth, and the overall effect is of something altogether more svelte and sensual. 2025–35. | 93–94 This article appears in the 18 Nov 2022 issue of the New Statesman, The World of Fine Wine Issue 77

Matching the correct tooth to your application can significantly reduce wear rates and increase ease of digging. This results in faster cycle time, less fuel consumption and reduced downtime. Rotating your bucket teeth can help you determine wear patterns and increase productivity. Teeth located closer to the bucket corner often wear down faster. If your bucket is loaded on an angle regularly, then teeth will wear quicker on the leadingside. Tungsten Coating is a protective covering on wear surfaces that dramatically reduces erosion, abrasion and corrosion. It can be used for a number of applications, including high abrasion and moderate impact uses. Having this coating on your bucket teeth and other wear parts can have a big impact on operational costs by lasting longer and increasing productivity of your machine.

Beside for improving posture, circulation and range of motion, can also help lower the risk of muscle injury and reduce muscle pain after exercise. According to the American College of Sports Medicine, adults should do stretching exercises at least two to three days a week after the muscles have been warmed. There are seven stretch types that we can do to maximize the benefits of fitness. Static stretching is kind of training of stretch that is done by stretching the muscle to the point of maximum tension and holding it for 30 seconds. With active static stretching, we apply pressure during doing so. Example of active static stretching is to sit on the floor with our feet position are in front of us. In addition, pull our toes back to stretch our calf and hamstrings. While passive stretching is done by holding the stretch for 30 seconds. This type of static stretching can be performed with couples that use force to increase the intensity of each stretch or with bands and resistant machines. Dynamic stretching includes sport-specific flexibility exercises designed to mimic the movement patterns of different activities. An example of a dynamic stretch would be a runner who took long, slow strides similar to a running motion, exaggerating each movement to maximize the stretch. Active isolated stretching is performed in sets of reps, much like weight training. Each stretch is only held for two seconds before it is released and then held again. Each subsequent stretch should increase in intensity over the course of the set. Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Fascilitation Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) is the most effective form of flexibility stretch to increase range of motion. PNF involves a series of stretching and contracting opposing muscle groups. These stretches are often performed on individuals by physical therapists and by sports doctors seeking to repair muscle injuries and increase athletic performance. PNF can also be used for treatments other than stretching, for example muscle strengthening in a rehabilitation setting. PNF in this sense involves spiral-diagonal movements, as are used in most daily and sporting activities. Very few activities use only one plane of movement, there is usually an combination of two or all three planes (flexion/extension; adduction/abduction; and rotation). For this reason, PNF incorporates these spiral-diagonal movements to help train the body in the way in which it is most often used. Myofascial release utilizes a foam roller to stretch muscles and fascia, the body's complex system of connective tissues. Pressure is applied by moving a foam roller over the target area in short, controlled movements. Myofascial release is similar to deep tissue massage, but it can be self-administered. Ballistic stretching is the bouncing type of stretching, where we take the muscle to near its limit and then bounce to stretch it further. For example reaching over to touch your toes and bouncing to increase the range. This type of stretching exercise is rarely recommended due to the injury possibilities and no beneficial effect over other, safer, forms of stretching such as PNF and dynamic stretches.

The casino’s name, possibly inspired by the popular Internet acronym “lol” (laugh-out-loud), sets the tone for a fun and enjoyable atmosphere. While it’s unclear whether laughter was the direct inspiration, the casino does offer a wide array of games to keep players amused. The gaming library at Lolo.bet Casino is undoubtedly one of its strongest points. With a staggering selection of approximately 3,400 pokies, players are spoiled for choice. The casino’s focus on slot machines doesn’t disappoint, offering a range of titles from well-known developers like BGaming, BetSoft, and Booming Games. From classic slots to innovative Megaways games, the pokies selection caters to all preferences.

License to What? Sam Aurelius Milam III Several years ago, I observed the situation of a young lady who went into the Kaiser hospital in Santa Clara, California, to have a baby. During her few days there, every possible attempt was made to prevent her from smoking. Although she had smoked like a chimney during her entire pregnancy and fully intended to keep doing so after the delivery, the nurses couldn't stop whining about the horrible consequences that smoking would cause for her baby. They seemed to be too stupid to realize that, compared to the long-term situation, a few days of enforced abstinence wouldn't matter. However, I don't believe that they were stupid. I believe that they were arrogant. They had this lady under their control and they took full advantage of the opportunity to impose their beliefs upon her. The fact is that they weren't behaving as nurses, but as evangelists on a Holy Crusade. I know of another, more recent example of the same kind of thing. An acquaintance of mine, a man who drinks a lot of beer, was recently in the hospital for pneumonia. Predictably, he was prohibited from drinking beer while in the hospital. Predictably, he was drinking again shortly after his release. So far as I can tell the only consequence of the prohibition was to add to his already difficult hospitalization the additional strain of temporary withdrawal from alcohol. It was another example of medical evangelism instead of medical treatment. I understand that some medicine reacts adversely with alcohol. In that case, the doctor should be sufficiently astute to avoid prescribing such medicine to an alcoholic. If he isn't, then he shouldn't be prescribing medicine. Regardless of his alleged superior knowledge, a doctor should never give a patient orders. He should give advice. A nurse should never enforce discipline. She should offer treatment and comfort. A medical license is a license to offer aid and assistance, not a license to impose belief systems or dictate behavior. |Sad But True compiled by Jeffrey Trunzer from actual news reports Bridgeport, Connecticut, and the unified Miami-Dade County government in Florida recently joined the growing ranks of local governments announcing they will sue gun makers in an attempt to recover the costs of gun violence. Auto makers beware! You'll soon be reimbursing cities for the costs of high speed chases by cops, drive-by shootings, bent road signs, or any other "misuse" of a car, because you didn't control the resale of used cars. Elliot; N. Merrick, New York Democracy exists when the masses make the political decisions. Oligarchy exists when the privileged few do so. The oligarchs may be elected in the USA, but they're oligarchs just the same. I must disagree with your Fantasy Machine article regarding your First and Second laws of Economics. The First law example of the grocery store purchase explains that the inherent (?) value of groceries in equivalent units (?) is less than the inherent value of the money used to purchase the groceries. In fact, the purchaser of the groceries must value the groceries more than the purchase money. Why else would purchaser buy the groceries? And the seller of the groceries must value the purchase money more than the groceries. Why else would the seller offer the groceries for sale? The voluntary purchase of groceries (or any voluntary transaction) is a win-win situation for both parties and each party exchanges something for more value than he is giving up. Both parties have exchanged something for higher value. An observer to the transaction may feel that the groceries are worth less or more than the purchase money, but -- so what. A women paid thousands of dollars for Elvis Presley's fingernail clippings. I may not agree with her, but again, so what! There is no such thing as "value in equivalent units." All voluntary transactions take place because each party exchanges something for more value. Bob; Lee's Summit, Missouri I believe that it's possible to directly and accurately compare the value of different commodities. The trick is to understand value objectively instead of subjectively. That means we must distinguish between the actual value of something and how desirable or useful it is to us. In the car example, where I've used energy as analogous to value, there is less energy in the speed of the car than there was in the gasoline. The reason the driver accepts the loss of energy in the process is that the smaller amount of energy in the speed is more useful to him than the larger amount of energy in the gasoline. In your example, the value of the fingernail |clippings was probably less than the value of the money the lady paid for them. She was willing to accept the loss in value because the fingernail clippings were more desirable to her than the money. Generally, what you buy isn't greater in objective value than what you pay for it. It is only more useful or desirable to you. If you measure value objectively, then even a win-win transaction doesn't result in each party receiving more value than he gives. That would create value out of nothing. What actually happens is that each party receives something that is more useful or desirable to him, but probably of less objective value than what he traded for it. In the grocery store example, the value of the customer's money must pay for much more than the food he buys. It must also pay for the total cost of transferring the food from the producer to the shopping cart. This is necessary because the customer's money is the only place that the people accomplishing the transfer can get the value that is represented by their pay checks. Except when food is improved by some form of processing, it's value is never more than it was when the producer sold it, yet its cost goes up at each step of the transfer process. If the customer wants the value of the food he buys to be approximately equal to the value of the money that he pays for the it, then he must buy the food directly from the producer. I believe that there is such a thing as objective value, or value in equivalent units, as you called it. We just haven't figured out how to measure it. If we use an objective unit of measure, instead of dollars, that measurement might not be as difficult as it seems. If we do learn how to precisely compare the values of different things using a unit of measure that is constant from time to time and place to place, then we will have transformed economics from legerdemain into science. .... Are you enjoying the "comic tragedy" as much as I am? I guess that the 130 or so who were convicted of "perjury" will be filing their H/C [habeas corpus] writs as soon as the "trial" is over?! Eric; Tehachapi, California I presume that you refer to the impeachment situation. I haven't printed much about it in this newsletter, but here's my opinion. I believe Clinton didn't owe the citizens an apology at all. There's nothing in his oath of office about marital fidelity. The marital contract is a separate agreement and it's between him and Hillary, not between him and the citizens. Hillary is the only person to whom an apology might have been due, and we don't even know that for sure. Maybe she knew about Monica, and didn't object. Maybe they have an open marriage. It wasn't anybody's business except theirs, which Clinton correctly stated in his first coerced "apology". The level of puritan venom directed at him by self-righteous critics is far more a condemnation of the critics than it is of Clinton. I doubt if there's a man among us (or them) who hasn't had an occasional affair, or who hasn't wanted to have one, and who wouldn't have done the same thing Clinton did if he thought he could get away with it. I've had a number of affairs and I don't intend to apologize for any of them. Therefore, I won't criticize Clinton for having an affair. That's Hillary's job, if anybody's. The argument that an "elected official" should havea higher ethical standard than the citizens is just another way of saying that the citizens should have a lower ethical standard than the elected officials. That's a cop-out for self-righteous citizens, and it's absurd. Since the officials are drawn from among the pool of citizens, you have to expect the officials to have the same standards as the citizens. Our "culture" has assumed such a malicious condemnation of sexual pleasure that no politician in his right mind would admit to having an affair. I'm amazed that Bob Livingston did. If you make it plain that all witches will be slowly burned at the stake, then ask a man if he's a witch, you have to expect him to deny being a witch. It was naive of anyone to expect Clinton to admit to an affair. As the sorry situation developed, I didn't see anybody lambasting the feminists for being too stupid to foresee the predictable consequences of forcing men and women together in the same workplace. I've been proclaiming those consequences for years. All I got for my trouble was to be accused of hating women. I didn't see anybody lambasting the Holier-Than-Thou Fundamentalist Christians for proclaiming sexual pleasure to be a filthy perversion. Has this mess taught members of either group anything about normal sexual behavior or about the consequences of sexually integrated workplaces? Don't bet on it. They're to blinded by their agendas to actually learn anything. The years-long barrage of escalating feminist and Fundamentalist Christian brainwashing that created the current repressive mindset never gets considered among the causes of things. The lunatic reformers just select another set of victims and launch another witch hunt. It's a fitting pastime only for hypocrites, evangelists, and fools.

First of all Happy Friday! I love Fridays, thank God for the weekend. On to the review, I’ve been using this mascara since about 2 months now, I intially had a like/dislike relationship with it but now my mind is set up and I have to say I love it. This is one of the new launches by Maybelline across our seas. I just wish they would launch it here as soon as possible. I’m sure it will be a big hit here! Price – $9 approx The mascara comes in different colours I believe, the one I have is Blackest black in Washable version. I have never tried the waterproof versions of Mascaras but I’ve heard they hold the curl longer. Let me know if you think they do, I would try those next time. The bottle is a cute girly pink colour. I have absolutely no problems with the packaging of this. The wand is pretty similar to the Maybelline Falsies mascara (which I love too btw). It just has more separated bristles than that one. It’s curved on one side. It’s a good design to curl your lashes. I personally never apply mascara on without curling my lashes, they just point so downwards, it’s honestly annoying sometimes. I sometimes use both a big lash curler and an individual lash curler. Somehow I dont understand why the lashes on my right eye look so much better than those on the left one. It’s weird. Any of you with that problem? The colour goes on very black. I always put on two coats of it. If you use more than two, it’s surely going to clump. I hate having Spider Leg like lashes so I just stick to two coats of it. I first curl my lashes and then do the first layer with the part curved outwards, then let it try for a few minutes and then do the second coat with the part curved inwards. I used this technique with the Falsies one and it worked best this way. I believe for lashes like mine, this way is the best for using this mascara too. Just wiggle between the lashes to coat all of them. I noticed no flaking with this one at all. I must say Maybelline nailed the formula with this mascara. The mascara nicely separates the lashes. One set it holds the curl all day long. It does not curl very well if you dont use a lash curler before. I always use it with every single mascara. To be honest, putting on mascara takes me the longest time. I can do my full face in 20 minutes out of which 10 might be for mascara 😛 Call me obsessed. I just love long and well defined lashes. Here is how it looks on me. Please ignore the horrendously dark, dark circles. Overall, I love this mascara and I would definitely repurchase. It has some serious competition with Maybelline Falsies. The only problem with the Falsies one is that it kind of stops working for me after 2 months or so. I dont quite understand why but the texture changes. Thankfully I dont have that problem with this one yet. I absolutely love it. I hope Maybelline launches it in India soon. **Fingers crossed** 1. Lasts all day 2. Does not Flake 3. Holds curl well 4. Easy to remove 5. Available in different colours/both washable and waterproof variants 6. Separates lashes 1. Holds curl but does not add it when used alone 2. Clumps after 2 coats My rating: 4.5/5 See you all soon!

Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) is a broad field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) that concerns the ability of AI systems to not only make decisions but to also explain these decisions. As AI becomes ever more embedded in the decisionmaking that affects our lives, we run into a dangerous situation whereby we are no longer able to determine why crucial decisions are being made, verify that they are being made for the right reasons or have any confidence in our ability to effectively detect and correct errors. Our work in XAI covers three vital areas of this problem. - The definition of explanation itself. We are developing novel semantics to effectively map the explanatory requirements of different applications and users to the explanatory capabilities of different AI techniques. - Explaining Machine Learned Policies for Goal Reasoning. As systems of multiple intelligent agents make collaborative decisions on goals to pursue, it becomes necessary to perform Goal Reasoning to decide how goals progress through the Goal Lifecycle and get developed and assigned to different agents. We are working with the US Naval Research Laboratory and the University of New South Wales on Machine Learning (ML) techniques that can perform this reasoning and, at the same time, explain how they are making their decisions. Since 2017, the consortium has received $180,000 USD in funding to support this work. - Extracting practical, informative explanations from real-world decision trees. Decision trees are often touted as being “transparent” or “explainable”. Yes they are capable of expressing their decisions as rules but how informative are these basic, rule-based explanations? We are developing theoretical techniques and code infrastructure to extract, curate and present a wide variety of explanations from decision trees that go beyond simply dumping out their rules. Some of these techniques also have application to other modelling techniques, including certain types of deep neural networks.

Sankt Interface Day 2017 6th December 2017, 18:00- open end AudiMax & Dokapi Domgasse 1 – Kunstuni Linz Dear friends of Interface Cultures, You are cordially invited to celebrate with us ‘Sankt Interface Day’ on 6th December 2017. ‘Sankt Interface’ is an artistic project organized by Interface Cultures which serves also as the annual celebration of our department. It is not a coincidence that it is celebrated around every ninth of December, the same day of 1968 when Douglas Engelbart did his ultra-famous conference, known today as “The Mother of All Demos”. At Sankt Interface, academic conferences, artistic performances, exhibitions, concerts and a “Computer Mouse Award” conform a celebration transforming into a happening in which students, professors, and friends of Interface Cultures participate at the same level. This year’s event includes the keynote “The Imperial Interface Industry and its UTOPIA” by Christian Ulrik Andersen, Associate Professor at Aarhus University (Digital Design and Information Studies). Inspired by network and software culture his research addresses the intersection between software and cultural performativity. In this talk he returns to the history of critical interface design in the 1980s and 90s – from Scandinavian design’s collaboration with workers’ unions (the UTOPIA project) to tactical media and Internet culture. The intention is to reflect on what can be learned from these traditions, and how to repurpose their insights and techniques today. But also Sankt Interface 2017 includes the intriguing art performance “The Geek Chefs”, a television cooking life show, starring the ecclectic artist duo gula gula. On this occasionn, the show is gula gula’s television debut, it will be noted for the presenters “espainsterreichish” dialect and relaxed style, and its use of jumpy, experimentally risky playful skills. Their Menu for Sankt Interface: Raspberry Pie, Floppy Schnitzel & Gebackene Mäuse The third edition of the infamous ‘Computer Mouse Award‘ will close the event at Audimax and finally in Dokapi a series of live music performances with electronic instruments by Stefan Tiefengraber, Gabriela Gordillo and Enrique Tomás as well as some hot DJ sesions, will close the night. It’s a must see! 18:00-18:05 Welcome Sankt Interface 2017! Prof. Dr. Christa Sommerer and Enrique Tomás 18:05-19.00 Keynote by Christian Ulrik Andersen: The Imperial Interface Industry and its UTOPIA 19:00-19:20 Art Performance by gula gula: The Geek Chefs 19:20-20:00 Computer Mouse Contest Award (apply by/until 04/12/2017) 20:00- 21:00 Buffet & Getränke (in Dokapi) and Dj Session 21:00-22:30 Concerts from Interface Cultures Students, Teachers & Friends: Stefan Tiefengraber, Gabriela Gordillo, Enrique Tomás and more… 22:30-open end DJ sessions

England: In recent weeks Prince Philip of England has been on a visit to Israel and has accepted an award honoring his mother, Princess Alice because “...she hid three Jews in the palace in Athens during the Nazi occupation of Greece in 1943-1944.” (Times-Picayune, November 1, 1994, p. A-1) A previous article noted that Princess Alice was buried in Israel. We have received many inquires over the years regarding the British “Royal” family, many of them noting that Prince Charles has a very prominent Jewish look about him. The strange activities of Prince Philip, the father of Prince Charles, can be explained by an article in Women’s Voice (June 26, 1952, p. 13) where it says: “Perhaps the Jewishness of the Royal family of Britain will explain much that has heretofore remained a mystery. “In 1851, Alexander, the son of the Grand Duke of Hesse (the parent line of the Glucksburgs) contracted a morganatic marriage with a wealthy Polish commoner, a Jewess baptized Christian. To keep things ‘sweet’ after the family ‘hit the roof,’ they revived an old family title for Alexander and his Jewess: Count of Battenberg (that’s where the Battenberg line begins) and later, as time somewhat eased the shock, they made him prince of Battenberg. The eldest son of these two was Prince Louis of Battenberg, who came to England and joined Victoria’s court and family. He rose to be an Admiral in the British Navy and top socialite friend of Edward VII. During the 1914 war, he changed his name to the literal translation of ‘Mountbatten’ and he also became Marquis of Milford Haven. Now, his daughter, Princess Alice, married back into the Glucksberg family (the Danish/Greek group of direct Hesse ancestry) and she is the Mother of Philip; the Queen’s husband. That makes him one quarter Jew. But Louis’ second son (whose mother was the Polish Jewess) is the present Admiral Earl Mountbatten, Philip’s most influential uncle and top serving Admiral in the British Navy, last Viceroy to India, close friend of socialite/intellectual Fabians...His wife is the daughter of Lord Mount Temple (previously Mr. Wilfred Ashley, a Tory MP of 30 years ago). Ashley married the daughter of Sir Ernest Cassel, the son of a Cologne Jewish banker Cassel, and the financier of Edward VII...Princes Charles has been circumcised at Buckingham Palace by the Jewish Rabbi, Dr. Jacob Snowman, who has in the past attended other Royal Babies.” (From Kingdom Identify Ministries, Box 1021, Harrison, Arkansas).

ITE Monitoring Reports: ITE Case studies: Student Teacher Voice: Recommendation and resources to support innovation within ITE Course ITE Teaching Module Frameworks (A-B-C) and MOOC In-class teaching modules: Quality Assurance Reports: Dissemination and Exploitation ITELab Case Studies (2018): Preparing student teachers for the future classroom - five case studies of university-school collaboration Featuring examples from Norway (University of Agder), Ireland (University College Dublin), UK (Newcastle University), Italy (University of Perugia) and Portugal (Polytechnic Institute of Santarém). The case studies show how university teacher education faculties are responding to the drive for more school-based initial teacher education, to ensure that new teachers are not only theoretically but also practically ready for tomorrow's classrooms. Examples include school and university personnel co-designing study programmes featuring innovative methods and supporting the development of digital pedagogical skills, jointly designing active learning spaces, and - remarkably - student teachers 'taking over' schools. What emerges from these case studies is a blurring of the boundaries between universities and schools, between university staff and teachers, and between student teachers and in-service teachers, for the benefit of all. Imaginative new learning spaces and joint projects help cement these new relationships and ensure that tomorrow's teachers are well prepared for tomorrow's schools. ITELab Monitoring Report 2 (2018): The publication of the ITELab monitoring report (2018) shows the increasing focus first, on initial teacher education in education policy and practice, and second, on the importance of developing the student teachers' digital pedagogy skills. The report provides: an update on EC and national strategies regarding the integration of ICT in ITE; main areas of ICT in the curricula of respective ITE providers; and challenges of integration of ICT in training programmes. It covers the period June 2017 to June 2018. Information sources include: on-going literature monitoring by all ITELab partners; and, the results from an information gathering survey sent to partners and associate partners (universities, industry and education ministries). D3.1 Reccomendations and resources to support innovation within ITE: Digital pedagogical capacity building, the focus of the future ITELab introductory modules, is at the core of the modular framework and modules' design led by Dr Conor Galvin, University College Dublin. The design process is described in section 1 of the paper, with sub-section 1.2 providing details about the module architecture, while sub-sections 1.3 and 1.4 deliver an overview of the work in progress towards ‘'boosting innovation in Higher Education'' – a key objective in this project work-stream. In section 2, the paper outlines observations on how ITE providers can better exploit CPD resources and gives early recommendations based on the development of the ITELab module architecture and the resourcing of the first Module A which is to be trialed as part of the Spring 2018 beta pilot. The second part considers the ITE curricula and how it can be developed in order to achieve more innovative models of teaching and learning.2. The paper concludes by giving early recommendations based on first observations of the beta-testing of the ITELab modules and the ongoing development of the project. Recommendations will be developed over the course of the project, reflecting the experience of the full pilot and evaluation in 2019 and discussions in the project's ITE Forum. D4.2 MOOC Outline: an outline providing a detailed description of the rationale, objectives, structure and content of the MOOC. D4.1 MOOC Requirements Report: the report outlines the requirements of project partners for training studenet teachers using a MOOC on the pedagogical use of ICT. The presentation 'Literature review report - Overview of research on the integration of ICT in Initial Teacher Education (ITE)' summarises current background research on which the project's understanding of how training in the pedagogical use of ICT is currently covered within ITE curricula in Europe and evidence of how student teachers are currently trained in using ICT. As new research on the topic emerges, this section will be updated accordingly. Please contact us at [email protected] if you are working in this area or you have suggestions of relevant research we could make available.

ITELab (Initial Teachers Education Lab) is a Knowledge Alliance project between higher education institutions and industry to foster innovation and knowledge exchange in initial/preservice teacher education (ITE). The ITELab Knowledge Alliance project includes six universities providing teacher education, of which five will pilot the modules and student MOOC and one will act in an evaluation capacity. Project partners also include four companies that offer Information and Communications Technology (ICT) solutions and professional development for teachers. ITELab is co-ordinated by European Schoolnet, a pan-European network of 34 Ministries of Education concerned with the transformation of teaching and learning in schools. European Schoolnet's work in previous projects with Ministries of Education, plus a needs analysis carried out with teacher educators highlighted, that the way in which student teachers currently receive training on ICT is a key roadblock related to the mainstreaming of innovative pedagogical practice that involves ICT. There is also a ‘disconnect' between ITE and continuing professional development (CPD) and, as a consequence, in-service training on the pedagogical use of ICT is increasingly required to equip teachers with the essential competences that they did not acquire during their initial training. Universities and companies will come together in ITELab and work with Ministries of Education, national ICT agencies and other stakeholders (participating as Associate Partners), to address these issues. The project will provide data and case studies that highlight new approaches to integrating ICT within ITE courses and the challenges that still need to be addressed in order to boost innovation in this area within higher education. Based on this work, the project will develop new course modules and a MOOC for student teachers and pilot these with students enrolled in courses in five universities or working in ‘teaching schools' in different countries. The MOOC will also be delivered to thousands of student teachers from across Europe. Finally, project partners will put in place a new ITE University-ICT industry Forum and work with a wider group of stakeholders online and in three Capacity Development Workshops in order to establish and sustain this as a permanent network under the independently funded Future Classroom Lab of European Schoolnet. The project course modules and MOOC will help bridge the ITE/CPD disconnect by providing concrete deliverables that will motivate ITE providers, companies and policy makers at national and regional level to actively participate in this project. European Schoolnet and its supporting ministries see this as a strategic next step in the development of the Future Classroom Lab. ITELab is co-funded under the European Commission's Erasmus+ Programme from January 2017 to December 2019. Download the ITELab Overview here.

Founding a business of any kind requires many things of the person ‘crazy’ enough to ‘go for it’. It takes a lot of guts to jump out there and say “Okay World, I’m starting a business named _(x)_, and we will be providing _(y)_ to the _(z)_ market”. First, I admire anyone that has the guts to take the ‘Leap of Faith’ and start their own business – it is an exciting and scary proposition. In addition to starting my own business, I have had the pleasure of consulting scores of new entrepreneurs/business owners (and potential ones) in nearly every industry for over nine years. There are many things that entrepreneurs have in common across all industries, the foremost being that for every business that you see – there is a person(s) with a dream behind it. Once you fully realize and appreciate what it takes to manifest a dream, you can’t help but appreciate the journey that someone has undertaken. I believe everyone should start their own business at some point in life – even a smaller business – just for the experience. There is magic there when someone endeavors to make their dreams a reality. I will explore some of the elements and milestones that come with starting and building a business. From Goethe quotes and interviews with local business owners – to ‘crazy energy’ and ‘war rooms’. When I jumped in and started my company, I did not have all of the answers, I was not able to build a business plan for investors, it was impossible – as there were no other businesses like www.myjoecard.com with a business model to use for comparison. What I did have was passion, drive and vision. I KNEW that the business was going to work. I was ABSOLUTELY sure. Once I took stock of my experiences, expertise and resources (I.e. the rest of my life), I knew I could make it happen – the idea was so compelling that there was no way that I could keep myself from ‘going for it’. Everyone comes up with ideas at different times in their life for new products, services, types of business, etc., but it is the ideas that are tremendously compelling that ‘snare’ you. One thought I wrote in my journal: “You can’t start out with all of the answers. You have to go out and earn them.”

The guys nodded.There are very few women in the tribe, and although there are a group of rough men present, the love revealed in the eyes of each father is no less than that of their respective mothers. Ye Feng was indifferent, gently withdrawing his sword and retreating.Seeing the sky at the moment, the Great Annihilation Realm does kaiser cover weight loss pills began to turbulently surge, and the wheel turning realm did not move like a mountain, and the two powerhouses made a judgment.

He stepped on the ground again and rushed in front of Ye Feng, who was still flying in the air. Smile, do not talk.Li Ziqing smashed more than a dozen thunder apes with one sword Wait until a safe place. As for Li Yanfeng and the people in the Li family, it was as if they had heard the savior coming into the world.

Ye Feng, I will be surpassed by you Ye Feng blinked Well is not this a matter of time Brother Pan, why are you so emotional Are you not ready yet Ye Feng went to the side to rest again.

Although the other party seemed to be much weaker after endless years, it was by no means an easy match.

Yes, we are looking for him Ye Feng walked to Li Ziqing is side at this time Is there any problem you This time, the two of the Xiao family saw Ye Feng clearly, and their eyes became even more strange. He was stunned for a while, then smiled and took the box over.Hahaha As for Xiao Hai, it was the first time he really showed a very emotional smile behind him.

And Xuanyuan Xing sent Ye Feng back with a smile on his face, and then quickly returned to his prison director is office.

Sure enough, around the vast ocean lake at the center of Wuji Peak, there were four immortal beasts marked. Although the injuries on their faces were almost repaired, the embarrassment on the whole body was still clearly visible at a glance.

Sacco had not reacted at all to what happened, and suddenly the whole body was entangled by a force of space, and it was directly teleported away from his two monsters. He did not know that there must be a conspiracy behind the change of the Yellow Clan.

Li Hong laughed Li Ziqing, Li Ziqing, it is a pity that my Li family is immortal artifact can only exert the combat power of the three realms in your hands. At the same time as he said these words, inside the city wall, a figure leaped into the air, like a dragon leaping out of the sea, shrouded in vigorous immortal energy, towards Ye Feng.

On Wednesday June 6th, an exceptional astronomical event will take place. As seen from Earth, the planet Venus will pass in a straight line between Earth and the Sun. As a result of that, an observer on Earth can see the planet Venus 'transiting' the Sun disk. When you are looking at the Sun using special equipment (*never* look without any protection straight to the sun !), you can see a black circle slowly passing over the Sun. The last time this event took place, was 8 years ago. However, it will take another 100 years, on 2117 Dec 11th and 2125 Dec 08th, for anyone to be able to observe this transit again. For observers in Belgium, only the last part of the 7 hours during spectacle will be visible in the morning of June 6th, and this from 5:21 (sun rise) up till 6:55, when the planet's silhouette will leave the sun's disk. This event is an ideal opportunity to have a look at this through professional equipment, several observatories will be open to the public to give you an opportunity to look at the Venus transit.

Proper care of nursery stock after it is received from the nursery is critical to ensure planting success. The following guidelines should be incorporated into your tree planting program: Before delivery have the storage facility temperature stabilized at 34°F to 40°F for several days to ensure all equipment is properly functioning. Wet walls and floor daily with water to provide a humidity level of 90% or greater. Root coverings such as shingletow or sphagnum moss should be water soaked for 24 hours prior to use to hydrate fully. Mice can cause tremendous damage to seedlings by chewing and eating undetected on roots, stems, and buds. Bait the tree storage facility before stacking stock on pallets or racks. Examine stock after receipt and notify the nursery immediately regarding any questions. Nursery stock is a rapidly perishable product under improper storage conditions. Roots should be kept moist at all times. Use a root covering and mist several times daily including weekends. Root dehydration will result in seedling death. Keep in mind that cooler units remove moisture from the storage room whenever they are in operation. UPS shipments can remain in the poly lined boxes until planting. Open after receipt and check daily for moisture needs. Refrigerate as soon as possible. Do not expose root systems to drying wind and sun during transport to the planting area and cover roots with damp burlap while on the tree planter before planting. Rotate stock so that unplanted stock from the previous day is the first stock planted the next day. Success of the planting, especially with evergreens, is reduced when planting in temperatures in excess of 75°F in combination with hot, drying winds. Begin planting as early as possible in the day. Always handle nursery stock with care, rough handling can damage or destroy critical seedling cell layers which will not be immediately evident. Stock may be heeled into soil, sand, or sawdust in a shaded, cool area if controlled cooler storage is not available. Bud break will occur more rapidly in outside storage. Once again, moisture in the root system area is critical. Excessively long or damaged roots may be trimmed with sharp hand pruners before planting. Do not break roots off, a clean cut heals quickly. Storage molds in the form of a white film often develop on cooler stored stock. These storage molds feed on external organic materials on the seedlings or on root exudates. The molds can be removed by washing gently with a garden hose. Stock can be dipped in a fungicide if it is to be further stored for several days or weeks.

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio and MCLEAN, Va., July 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ID.me, the market leading digital identity and credentials network, and Sterling Check Corp. (NASDAQ: STER) (“Sterling”), the largest provider of identity and background services, today announced an extension to their exclusive agreement through July 2028. The agreement was initially established in January 2021. This extension reconfirms the two market leaders’ commitment to meeting the growing need for innovative identity solutions for US employers. Through the initial investment and collaboration since 2021, ID.me and Sterling brought to market the only identity-first solution that enhances pre-employment screening and strengthens hiring practices. This solution enables employers to confirm candidate identity through multiple methods – telecom/device, government issued ID, biometric face matching, and more. Sterling and ID.me have the only solution that we believe ensures 100% of legitimate candidates can complete the identity verification process, whether online, through video chat, or in-person. When employers verify identity upfront, they ensure accurate candidate information and improve screening results, which reduces employment fraud and increases safety. Recent results from early adopters uncovered an average of 45% more criminal results across 110K background checks when identity verification was completed as part of the hiring process. With over 100M verified Americans part of the ID.me Digital Identity Network, more than 1 in 3 job candidates have already confirmed their identity with ID.me, making it seamless for Sterling’s clients to enable their candidates to verify identity at the start of the screening process. In May 2023, the ID.me and Sterling identity offering became the first omnichannel solution to earn Kantara’s Trustmark for Identity Assurance Level 2 (IAL2), meeting federal digital identity guidelines set by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). This certification enables federal, state, and local US governments to deliver omnichannel, NIST-compliant access to identity verification through the ID.me and Sterling solutions. “The customer experience is at the heart of who we are as a company,” said Blake Hall, founder and CEO of ID.me. “Customers and clients are best served when they have confidence that accessibility and optionality are addressed alongside the highest privacy and security standards. Our partnership and shared vision with Sterling have taken the commitment to these standards to new heights.” ID.me and Sterling are collaborating to introduce new offerings in the coming months and years, including expanded solutions to help companies protect against interview fraud and streamline I-9 document verification. “Getting background checks right means getting identity right. Identity is the foundational component to any trust and safety program,” said Josh Peirez, CEO of Sterling. “We are thrilled to extend our exclusive partnership with ID.me and continue together delivering innovative identity-first solutions to our clients.” With more companies requiring identity as a standard part of their hiring processes, the partnership between Sterling and ID.me is expected to continue to lead the way, modernizing and simplifying an identity-first approach for clients. ID.me simplifies how individuals prove and share their identity online. More than 100 million members can use their ID.me Wallet to easily verify their identity across 30 states, 14 federal agencies, and over 500 name-brand retailers across ID.me’s secure digital identity network. The company provides secure login, identity proofing, and community affiliation verification for organizations across sectors.

Development of Modern Microcrystal Tests for Controlled Drugs, Diverted Pharmaceuticals, and Bath Salts There are a number of controlled substances for which there are presently no known microcrystal tests. This project seeks to research and develop new microcrystal tests and methodologies from a selection of 12 controlled drugs, diverted pharmaceuticals, or bath salts. These 12 drugs will be tested with 37 different reagents. Those that produce microcrystal test results will be added to the free PDF publication from McCrone Research Institute: A Modern Compendium of Microcrystal Tests for Illicit-Drugs and Diverted Pharmaceuticals, which is currently available in the latest edition at http://www.mccroneinstitute.org/uploads/A_Modern_Compendium_of_Microcrystal_Tests.pdf. The new microcrystal tests and procedures resulting from this research will be vetted, developed, and appraised by forensic research and senior research microscopists at McCrone Research Institute in Chicago, with voluntary collaboration from selected forensic scientists in other laboratories. Each newly discovered microcrystal test will include recommended reagents, test methods, crystal morphology, test notes, drug interactions, photomicrographs, illustrations, infrared spectra of microcrystals, potential interferences, and polarized light microscopy (PLM) optical properties of the resultant microcrystals. This project is supported by Award No. 2016-IJ-CX-K010, awarded by the National Institute of Justice, Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice. The opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed are those of McCrone Research Institute and do not necessarily reflect those of the Department of Justice.

Investment Guides, Handbook and Profiles MCI’s investment guides provide an overview of the main sectors that have been identified as offering productive opportunities for investors interested in a particular Millennium City. The guides also provide information on key issues such as infrastructure, the legal and regulatory environment governing investment and the broader context of development issues. Because they are a reflection of the situation at the time of their preparation, users are advised to check on whether conditions have changed since their publication. Intended for both foreign and domestic investors, these guides are written to be credible and useful tools for evaluating some of the more promising investment sites in sub-Saharan Africa. Invest in Tanzania: Focus Tabora Abstract: Invest in Tanzania: Focus Tabora. A growing city in western Tanzania, Tabora is the capital and economic center of the country’s largest region. Invest in Tanzania: Focus Tabora outlines viable opportunities in processing of honey, edible oils, dairy, and tropical fruits, among others. With a pleasant climate, rich cultural assets and proximity to the Ugalla River Game Reserve, the area also offers significant opportunities for developing tourism facilities and services Invest in Malawi: Focus Blantyre Abstract: Invest in Malawi: Focus Blantyre describes the investment climate in the second largest city in Malawi and the country’s commercial capital. Blantyre’s business-friendly environment, regional transport connections and low-cost English-speaking workforce make it an attractive location for investors, particularly those seeking opportunities in agro-processing, textiles, tourism and mining. Invest in Ethiopia: Focus Mekelle Abstract: This guide provides a detailed analysis of Mekelle’s investment climate, sketches the broader context of Ethiopia and the Horn of Africa, and provides balanced descriptions of investment opportunities in tourism, agriculture and agro-processing, mining, and manufacturing, among others. Invest in Ghana: Focus Kumasi Abstract: This guide treats Kumasi, a substantial city of over two million people located in Ghana’s most populous region. Kumasi’s central location, about 270 km northwest of Accra, makes it a major commercial and transport hub for much of the nation. Investment opportunities abound in and around the city, particularly in the areas of agriculture, agro-processing, tourism, retail, light manufacturing and mining. An abbreviated Kumasi Investment Guide, produced in 2013 as part of the Regional Partnership to Promote Trade & Investment, is also available. Invest in Kenya: Focus Kisumu Abstract: A pleasant lakeside city in the heart of East Africa, Kisumu presents opportunities in agriculture and agro-processing, aquaculture, dairy, tourism, construction and manufacturing. The region’s educational institutions contribute a well-regarded workforce, and Kenya’s participation in various regional and international trade agreements, such as COMESA and AGOA, extend the city’s market well beyond the region. Handbook on Investment Promotion in Medium-Size, Low-Budget Cities in Emerging Markets Abstract: This Handbook for Promoting Foreign Direct Investment in Medium-Size, Low-Budget Cities in Emerging Markets is intended as a tool for city administrators in cities of low-income countries to attract investment. Foreign direct investment – on which this Handbook is focused – brings scarce capital, know-how, technology and access to foreign markets. Furthermore, if well embedded in the economic strategies of host economies, foreign direct investment can help improve the competitiveness of domestic enterprises as well, a core foundation of economic growth.

Islamic Fundamentalism Yasmin Mather Over the last few years Islamic fundamentalism has been portrayed by some in the West, especially the US administration,as a major world threat. The atrocities committed by a number of Islamic groups, such as the GIA in Algeria,fundamentalists in Egypt or the Islamic states in Iran or Afghanistan, have been used to whip up a sense of hysteria againstIslam. In this article we will try to explain the diverse and often contradictory nature of Islamic fundamentalism, both inIran where an Islamic state came to power in 1979 and among Islamic movements in the Arab world. We will argue thatfundamentalism – contrary to the propaganda of its supporters and its enemies alike – has only strengthened capitalism inIslamic countries, and that, since it poses a diversion to the development of revolutionary movements in these countries, itcan only reinforce the status quo. We will further argue that as Islamic fundamentalism is not a monolithic force, andbecause most of the Islamic world is an integral part of world capitalism, twentieth century Islam is unlikely to threaten"The West" as some want us to believe. In this respect it is important to note that the financial backers of some of the mostbarbaric Islamic groups, such as the Taleban, are Saudi Arabia, the Gulf states and Pakistan, all amongst the staunchestallies of the United States in the region. Others, such as the GIA (Algeria) and the Egyptian fundamentalists responsiblefor recent bombings, are by-products of the Afghan war paid by Saudi money or CIA funds in Pakistan – although atpresent some of these groups might be out of the control of their pay masters. Why fundamentalism? The sociological reasons behind Islamic fundamentalism have been discussed by many writers and analysts. Industrialization and the rural exodus that started in the 1960s in most Middle Eastern countries saw the creation of shantytowns around many cities. The state in these countries was incapable of dealing with this demographic change. Poverty,unemployment, cultural differences and lack of social mobility all played a part in the alienation of shanty town dwellersfrom the rest of urban society. At the same time, the rate of literacy increased and state education allowed sections of thepetty bourgeoisie access to higher education. Many of the cadres of Islamist parties came from this section, while theirrank-and-file support is mainly from the lumpen youth of the shanty towns. The rise of Islamic fundamentalism in theMiddle East coincided with disillusionment with Marxist, secular ideologies and the failures of Stalinist parties. In Egypt,Algeria and Iraq the popularity of fundamentalism was a reaction to the failures of Arab nationalism and Baathism, and inAfghanistan it was a direct consequence of the failure of the Stalinist state. Contrary to popular belief, neo-fundamentalismis not simply a reaction against modernisation, but a by-product of modernisation. As a result it is often a nationalistmovement dominated by the cultural and political aspirations of various nation states, rather than a monolithic Islamistmovement. Contradictions and impasses of Islamic fundamentalism There are many reasons, inherent in Islam, why it cannot become a world threat, unifying Muslims in tens of countries. First and foremost is the division between Sunni and Shia sections of Islam, which is at times more profound thandivisions between Muslims and followers of other religions. Shias mainly live in Iran, parts of Iraq, and as a minority inLebanon and Afghanistan; the rest of the Islamic world is predominantly Sunni. The establishment of the first Shia state inIran has led to some virulent anti Shia propaganda by Sunni clerics and Sunni fundamentalists of the Islamic Brotherhood. Second, the divisions within either of these sections regarding essential theological issues, as well as arguments regardingthe role of political Islam, the position of women and economic issues have constantly fragmented and weakened Islamicmovements. As there is no single Islamic culture and no single Islamic nation or language, Islamist movements areprimarily divided along national and regional lines. The Iranian revolution of 1979 If the Iranian revolution was the beginning of the rise of fundamentalism – albeit in a Shia state – the failure of "politicalIslam" in Iran, and the gradual yet consistent transformation of the Islamic state in Iran to "civil society" marks thebeginning of the end for the dream of an Islamic state based on Sharia (religious law and practice). The Iranian uprisingwas a direct result of the failures of the Shah’s regime to respond to the economic crisis that followed the economic boomof the early 1970s. Most skilled workers faced a drop in their living standards in 1976.The White Revolution had left http://www.isf.org.uk/ISFJournal/ISF3/IslamicFundamentalism.htm (1 of 5) [8/17/2000 9:45:01 PM] massive numbers of peasants landless and penniless, going in search of seasonal jobs in major cities. Recession in theIranian economy left them unemployed and destitute in shanty towns. In addition to the above two groups, the smallindependent producers had been forced out of business (made bankrupt) with the help of Iran’s Chamber of Commerce, torescue the already privileged position of big industrialists. Corruption and the rule of a clique around the Royal courtmeant that many traditional merchants, often associated with the bazaar, were deprived of large profits available to themore privileged sections of the ruling class. The clergy, which had survived the repressive measures of the Shah’sdictatorship by compromising with the regime, was in a much better position to benefit from political discontent thansecular, socialist groups who had had lost many in their ranks through execution and imprisonment. Historical background of Shia clergy in Iran Historically, Iranian intellectuals are responsible for portraying Shia Islam in Iran as a "progressive force". This concept,encouraged in the 1950s-1980s by Stalinist ideology, is based on the myth that Shia clerics were absent from politicalpower during the rule of various dynasties in Iran, and therefore were part of the movements against absolute monarchs. Infact religious Shia leaders were functionaries of the court (in the Safavid/Qajar dynasties), lived in the court and were partof the establishment and the state. During the Constitutional Revolution, the main aim of the clergy was to stop radicalmovements and, at best, sections of the clergy sided with constitutional monarchists (e.g. Ayatollah Behbahani), while themajority of the clergy was mainly concerned with defending feudalism. During what became known as the "tobaccouprising" most of the Shia clergy ended up in the gardens of the British Embassy supporting one colonial power (Britain )against another (Russia). During the oil crisis of 1953 a minority within the Shia clergy originally supported the limiteddemands of the nationalists – but as the balance of forces changed in favour of the Shah, they suddenly moved back tosupport the Shah. The role of the clerical leader of the time, Ayatollah Kashani, is well documented. In 1963, at the time ofthe Shah’s White Revolution, a reform from above aimed at transforming Iran to a modern capitalist state, the oppositionof the clergy led by Khomeini was completely reactionary. The main planks of his main opposition were two issues:firstly, on the expropriation of the land of feudal land owners, Khomeini’s objection was based on the sanctity of propertyin Islam; secondly, he opposed vehemently the reform to give women the right to vote. On both counts this opposition toreforms was clearly reactionary. Contradictions of Sharia (Islamic laws) – the case of Shia Islam One of the principle pillars of Shia ideology is the concept of the return of the 12th Imam, who disappeared 13 centuriesago and will only return to earth when corruption, injustice. have reached unbearable levels. In his absence anygovernment is deemed to be unjust and corrupt. In fact as many clerical delegates of the Iranian parliament have repeatedlyreminded us over the last few years, any attempt by government, even a religious government, at improving socialconditions, reducing corruption, reducing poverty or narrowing the gap between the rich and the poor can only delay thearrival of the 12th Imam and therefore contradicts Shia theology. Such ideas are useful when the clergy is in opposition, asthey were in the early history of Islam in 7th and 8th century, but it is a serious hindrance to them when in power. The Shiastate is further based on the cult of personality of it martyred imams and innocence of these imams. Again this worked fineas a historic concept, when stories of the bravery of long-dead imams could aspire devotion martyrdom. It is more difficultwith a living imam (in this case Khomeini) in the last decades of the 20th century, when a minor (or major) indiscretionsuch as the Irangate scandal can tarnish the image of the supreme cleric overnight. Rule of Sharia in a country where thecapitalist mode of production and urbanisation are so advanced is doomed to failure. However the principle cause for the failure of political Islam is that once it takes power, it institutionalises itself and in theabsence of any Islamist economic policy (i.e. an alternative to capitalism or socialism) it inevitably becomes another thirdworld capitalist state, with all the limitations of such a state. Let us remember that the rise of Islamic fundamentalism had alot to do with the envy of the merchants of the bazaar who could never match the colossal fortunes gathered by theindustrial bourgeoisie around the court and the state in the previous regime. This envy of "monopoly" capital led them toback the clergy, their traditional ideological representatives. Yet once in power, in order to survive and prosper in aninternational capitalist order, this bourgeoisie inevitably had to replace the very capitalists they despised. In some cases,where expertise and international capital were necessary, the Islamic state invited the previous capitalists to return. In othercases they themselves tried to replace the old capitalists. The very people who argued against Western consumption andaccumulation became the consumers, and indeed as modernity is irreversible and universal, the bazaar merchants of Iranwho so vehemently were anti-Western in the late 1970s, have become pro-Western in the late 1990s. A reflection of this,which can also be seen in the "Hezbollah" (supporters of the clergy), is described by Olivier Roy as the http://www.isf.org.uk/ISFJournal/ISF3/IslamicFundamentalism.htm (2 of 5) [8/17/2000 9:45:01 PM] neo-fundamentalism of Iran with a schizophrenic approach: a hatred of one self for wanting Western consumption(therefore under the influence of Western culture) and a long battle to possess it. The economics of a capitalist state necessitate a "civil society". Most of the internal battles of the Islamic regime in Iranover the last 9-10 years are indeed part of this struggle. On the one hand those who still believe in the rule of Sharia andthose (religious forces) who have decided that the only way to survive is the establishment of the rule of law in a trulycapitalist state. The current president of the Islamic regime best portrays this position – but even as early as 1979, despiteall the religious rhetoric, the constitution of the first Islamic Republic is far more law-based than many people have beenled to believe, with a role for the parliament, the legislative and executive centres of power in the day-to-day running ofthe state, and religion in all senses taking very much a secondary role. Many have seen this as a clear reflection of thepoverty of Islamic thinking on the issue of political institutions. Olivier Roy suggests that, despite many books and essayswritten by Islamic theologians on details of the rule of Sharia, Iran’s policies over the last 19 years can be described as thepolicies of the crown (the previous order under the Shah) being pursued under the turban (a reference to the clerical hatworn by shia clergy) ("la couronne sous le turban"). Many arguments typical of capitalism have been aired in the Iranianparliament, the Majles – the battle between the statist reformers and defenders of the free market being a primary example. It has been argued that until 1989 and the death of Khomeini, those favouring state ownership dominated the Majles,whereas it is quite clear that since 1989 defenders of the free market have had the upper hand. In summary, both in economic and political spheres, the first Islamic state has been predominantly, and is increasinglybecoming, a capitalist state with "nationalist" overtones rather than religious ones. International politics Another pillar of the Sharia deals with the concept of Islamic "Ummah" or the Islamic nation. In many nations, includingIran, examples of Islamic forces in power and in conflict with fellow Muslims over land or oil can be seen. Thus theconcept of the Islamic nation is no more than a myth, with nation states fighting for "national" or "regional" interests farmore aggressively than they do in defence of the so-called Islamic nation. The eight year war between Iran and Iraq clearlydemonstrated this, where both countries relied heavily on Arab and Persian identities. Contrary to those who believe that Iran’s foreign policy was third worldist, one could argue that it was never more than acontinuation of the Shah’s policies of becoming a regional power. The real policy of Iran has been dominated bycompetition with Turkey, Pakistan, Iraq and Saudi Arabia with strong nationalist overtones. In order to become a regionalpower, Iran pursues a pragmatic foreign policy rather than an Islamist policy, despite all the rhetoric we have heard fromits leaders. For example in pursuit of a fierce competition with Turkey, Iran supported Christian Armenia versus MuslimAzerbaijan, simply because Turkey backed the latter. Iran opposed the Taleban advances in Afghanistan; its propagandatalked of the Taleban giving a bad name to Islam. But in reality the defenders of Hezbollah in Lebanon can’t be tooconcerned about the public image of Taleban, rather the main concern was that Taleban were supported by Saudi andPakistani money, competitors with Iran in the battle for domination of Afghanistan. Iran has kept contacts and reasonablerelations with Israel, mainly because the enemy of its enemies (the Arabs) must be a friend. Of course Iranian leaders have made a great deal of their support for the deprived Muslims of the world. But in practice,given their total mistrust of Sunni groups, this has amounted to support for a handful of specific splinter groups of the Shiacommunity in Lebanon (under Hezbollah) and a minority of the Shia community in Iraq and Pakistan, most of whom areof Iranian descent. In fact the Islamist rhetoric of the Iranian regime is very much coming to an end. The recent interviewof the Iranian president with CNN signals a significant shift in this policy; he not only expressed great admiration for theAmerican civilisation and its struggles for independence but went further and expressed regret at the takeover of the USembassy in 1980. The only issue that remains of Iran’s Islamist international rhetoric is the Fatwa on Salman Rushdie, and in this thefundamentalist regime is in a dilemma. Economic needs require better relations with European countries, yet Khomeini'sword cannot be contradicted and Iran’s competition with Saudi Arabia as the defender of the faith depends on this. Women and Islamic Fundamentalism For over 19 years Iranian women have been victims of the patriarchal laws of the first Islamic Republic. http://www.isf.org.uk/ISFJournal/ISF3/IslamicFundamentalism.htm (3 of 5) [8/17/2000 9:45:01 PM] Both under the current regime and the previous regimes Iranian women have been deprived of many of their basic humanrights and have suffered from both patriarchal ideologies that treat women as irrational and immature, and fromwidespread discrimination which affects their lives from birth to death. There is no doubt that since the establishment ofthe Islamic Republic in 1979, the plight of women has become worse. During the years of modernisation in the 1970s, alarge number of Iranian women found work in factories and offices. Many clerics argued that "the honour and dignityaccorded women by Islam" had vanished. One of the first acts of Ayatollah Khomeini was the enforcement of the veil onthe 8th of March 1979, less than a month after the establishment of the Islamic regime. The refusal of many organisationsof the left to defend women’s rights on this day led to catastrophic consequences: the Iranian regime started a systematicattack on women’s rights, and the left lost credibility as a defender of women’s rights and a supporter of democratic rights. The policy of enforced hejab (veil) and segregation was subsequently used to limit women’s access to education andrecreation facilities, and to institutionalise women’s confinement to the limited career and life opportunities available tothem, thus ensuring they become second class citizens. The new government also launched a campaign to drive women outof office jobs and to discourage them from any careers other than nursing and education. Government propaganda openly talked of the "shame and dishonour" of working in an office and school hours werechanged to make life more difficult for working mothers. All government-funded nurseries and day care centres attachedto offices and factories were closed. Some Iranian feminists have since argued that Islamic laws including those on the hejab (veil) have had a liberating effecton Iranian women. But in reality the veil was used to ensure that Islamic moral order is not defied and the veil became aninstitutionalised practise of Islamic patriarchy. Behind it all was a strategy of ensuring a return to traditional roles. The emphasis on motherhood as an essential femininecharacter forms a pillar of Islamic gender ideology. The heroine of Shia ideology is Fatmeh, a daughter of the prophet whomarried Ali (the first Shia Imam) at a very young age, gave birth to his three sons and died at eighteen. The majority of Iranian muslim girls live in a world dominated and manipulated by their male relatives. They can be givenaway in legal marriage without their knowledge or consent while still in their childhood. The process, in effect, paves theway for selling families to sell their under-aged girls in return for financial gains. The law of Hodud and Qesas (the law of tallion and physical punishments) treats women as half-human (or nothing) evenin their honesty or observation power, valuing a woman’s testimony in courts as half of a male’s testimony (or even as nilwhen it comes to testifying against murderers; according to article 33 of this law, no woman’s testimony is ever admissiblein murder cases). The laws governing marriage are among the most regressive in the world in terms of the discrimination against women. While males are allowed to marry up to four wives at a time in permanent marriage and an unlimited number of women inwhat is known as "temporary" marriage, strict monogamy is expected from women. Any woman who deviates from thisset-up may be brutally and savagely punished by publicly, by being stoned to death – the officially-sanctioned, andfrequently executed, punishment for extra-marital affairs. Inside marriage, the man is given almost a free hand in controlling his wife or wives. Rape inside marriage is sanctioned(as no consent is required for sexual relations inside marriage); wife-beating is tolerated and even encouraged by theKoran: women who disobey their men should be beaten up (soura 30). A woman’s movement may be restricted by her husband, and his permission is required for getting official traveldocuments. The law gives very few (if any) rights to women in sharing decisions in married life and/or in regards to thecustody of children. Moreover, there are no proper provisions in the law to prevent men from transgressing their rightsand/or abusing the extensive power they have inside marriage. When it comes to divorce, again, the man has almost a free hand, while the woman has a very limited recourse to the law. The grounds on which a man can divorce his wife are almost unlimited, while only in very unusual circumstances can awoman file for divorce. The extent of this gross and utterly discriminatory law was best exemplified by a report last yearthat an Iranian court has taken fourteen years to approve a divorce request from a woman who complained she wastortured by her husband, regularly reporting new incidents of abuse to the court; she finally agreed to drop all financialdemands against her husband, and had to contact Iran’s Prosecutor-General to get her divorce. In another case, the processtook eight years. http://www.isf.org.uk/ISFJournal/ISF3/IslamicFundamentalism.htm (4 of 5) [8/17/2000 9:45:01 PM] The divorce law also inflicts huge financial and emotional blows to the woman. The woman has to forfeit almost allfinancial claims if she files for divorce, while the settlement she receives if the divorce is initiated by the man is still verylimited. The emotional loss is much greater and more hurtful: the woman is deprived from the custody of her children(some as young as two); custody is usually awarded to the man. Within and without marriage, even the father’s father isgiven priority over the mother in custody matters. The extent of discrimination against women in marriage goes still further. A virgin woman (whatever her age) has no rightto marriage without the consent of her father (or her father’s father, in the absence of her father). A Muslim woman has noright to marry a non-Muslim, (a right her male counterparts have, with some limitations). Discriminatory laws against women have created favourable conditions and a suitable environment for widespread abusesand atrocities against women. Women have no effective recourse to the law in case they are abused, beaten or raped. Evenmany incidents of rape outside marriage go unreported because of the justifiable fears of the victim from being"dishonoured", cursed or even murdered by members of her own family and friends, or being prosecuted by the State andbrutally punished by a large number of lashes or stoned to death if she was judged by the court as being a willing partner. Many of the common laws such as the law of Hodud and Qesas, in conjunction with the discriminatory laws mentionedabove, work directly against women. As another example, if someone commits homicide in an all-female environment (thefrequency of which is itself a consequence of sexual segregation inside and outside the house), it will be impossible to geta conviction based solely on the testimony of the women present (no matter how many of them). According to article 33 ofthe law of Hodud and Qesas, no homicide case may be proved in court solely on the basis of women's testimonies. Defiance of the hejab code is punishable by 74 lashes (as very few women will ever dare walk out without a head scarf thisoften means showing a fringe) and, "since the crime is self-evident", punishment does not require a court decision andenforcement of the punishment can be immediate. Women are either arrested or given verbal warnings. Those who arecaught showing a fringe under a hejab are accused of "flaunting their naked bodies in the streets" and denounced as"corrupt, seditious, dangerous and destructive of public honour and chastity". Others face the 74 lashes. Some women havehad paint splashed on their faces by patrolling Islamic squads. Iranian women have been fighting hard against these injustices, but have had limited success in the face of theoverwhelming power of the State and its institutions. The privileged position of a handful of token women, mainly closerelatives of senior clerics, in higher echelons of the Islamic government, should not deceive anyone. At a time when many Iranian feminists in exile have become apologists for the Islamic regime, it is up to the revolutionaryleft to defend and support the struggles of Iranian women with commitment, determination and as a major part of thestruggle against the Islamic regime.

Clockwise from top left: Zhou Bo, Anna Rosario Malindog-Uy, Li Aixin, and John Pang, discuss the South China Sea issue during Global Minds Roundtable on January 10, 2024. Photo: screenshot Tensions between China and the Philippines in the South China Sea have been bubbling up for some time. Where is the situation headed in 2024? Could a conflict be sparked accidentally? In the latest episode of Global Times' Global Minds Roundtable (GT), Zhou Bo (Zhou), senior fellow of the Centre for International Security and Strategy at Tsinghua University, Anna Rosario Malindog-Uy (Malindog-Uy), director and vice president for external affairs of the Asian Century Philippines Strategic Studies Institute, and John Pang (Pang), a former Malaysian government official and a senior research fellow at Perak Academy, Malaysia, shared their views on these issues. GT: How do you see the South China Sea situation developing in 2024? Pang: It is actually driven by the US. However, the US was already defeated by the Taliban in Afghanistan, by Russia in Ukraine, and by the Houthis recently in the Red Sea. It is in absolutely no shape to take on China in the South China Sea. They can't afford something blowing up in an election year. I have enough faith in the maturity and the statesmanship of the Chinese government and the capacity of the PLA Navy to limit any particular skirmish. So at this point, it would be extremely foolhardy for the Philippines to be auditioning to be the next proxy to be destroyed. GT: In 2016, China issued a white paper noting that the Philippines had promised to tow away the vessel on Ren'ai Reef. Yet the Philippines later denied making this promise and refused to acknowledge it due to the lack of a written agreement. What do you think is the reason behind the shift in the Philippines' attitude? Malindog-Uy: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of China is saying that there was a promise. Some non-Chinese sources are also affirming that the promise exists. Gregory Poling, the director of the Southeast Asia program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington, revealed in his 2022 book that, and I quote, "when the Chinese government demanded that the ship be removed, President Estrada (then Philippine president), feigning ignorance, promised to tow the vessel away as soon as it could be safely floated off the reef." The current Philippine government has denied making such a promise, and various Philippine government officials, and former presidents, have publicly stated that no such agreement was made. Also, it seems that there is no publicly available evidence of a documented promise by the Philippines to remove the vessel from the shoal. The conflicting claims from both sides make the situation complicated. At the moment, political establishment in the Philippines are asserting that the vessel is in the shoal as a de facto military outpost of the Philippines and serves as a physical assertion of the Philippines' claim and presence in the area. Unlike China, there's no consistency in the Philippines, when you talk about foreign policy. Philippine foreign policy varies significantly with changes in government and political leadership. Zhou: Even Philippine scholars like you (Anna), know what promises your government made in the past on this issue. Otherwise, the Chinese government could not have written these remarks in the white paper. China has been quite accommodating to all ASEAN claimants. Look at the Taiwan question. We said that we will make utmost efforts to resolve it peacefully. But still, there are three conditions in which we might apply non-peaceful means. But with ASEAN countries, China has never threatened to use force against any claimant. You can tell the difference and how patient we have been. But if the Philippines made a promise, violated the promise, and wants to have a permanent presence on the reef, that goes too far. We do not want the Philippines to make this kind of installation a permanent military base. So my best answer is to let Mother Nature solve this problem. A ship that is not refurbished will become rustier, and eventually, this problem will be gone. If you put in cement and get it strengthened, this will become a bigger issue. Pang: Regarding the Philippine actions with the grounded ship, if you ask me how these made-for-media antics make other countries in ASEAN feel, I'd venture to say that makes them uncomfortable. They're not going to reproach the Philippine government in public. The ASEAN way is to raise these matters behind the scenes. Going to the media, playing it up and letting domestic politics run the show, as in the US, would not be the ASEAN way. It also damages a key ASEAN concern: ASEAN centrality. The Philippines is not the only democracy in Southeast Asia. Malaysia and Indonesia are also electoral democracies, and both have maintained a consistent policy toward China over decades. ASEAN does not want to see a member state placing itself in the service of great power politics, and involving the region in exactly the kind of great power conflict that ASEAN was founded to avoid. GT: Could a conflict be sparked accidentally between China and the Philippines in the South China Sea in 2024? Malindog-Uy: Hard to predict. The tendency for a conflict or a confrontation, especially a military one, is there. There are skirmishes between our navies. I don't think the US is prepared to have a head-on military collision with China in the South China Sea, or even in the Taiwan Straits. That's why it uses a proxy, and my country, the Philippines, is being used as a pawn or a proxy. I'm always worried that my country, under the current administration, would be an instrument for a regional conflict that could lead to a global conflict. I hope this will never happen, in 2024 or the coming years. Zhou: I think the possibility of a conflict is not zero, but it is highly unlikely. I hope it won't happen at all.

By Andrew Cooper The journey of self-discovery is seldom simple. Frequently the most unexpected things can reveal themselves. Two Lives tells of Andrew’s journey through gender confusion and his wish to be a woman. A chance tea-time conversation leads to an exploration of reincarnation and the resolution of his dilemma. Includes 16 pages of photographs, some in colour. Paperback, 96 pages, £6.95 By Joseph Hucknall A Life’s Tales is the story of a life lived in a vanished age, a life lived with compassion, insight, ambition and an adventurous spirit, a life fighting against discrimination against gays, and a constant search for self-improvement. Starting in 1935, when the author was six, these intimate, sensitively written, and engrossing memoirs span 77 years of social change, ranging from the poverty of a northern industrial childhood, shared with eight siblings, through the war years, to an adolescent awakening of homosexuality. This was followed by conscription into the Army, progression through the Woolworth company until its meltdown and into a period of creativity and ongoing self-discovery. Told with wry philosophic humour, the story is episodic and follows a revealing journey through family life and struggle, homosexual experiences and, the challenge of leading a double life to ‘coming out’ as a gay man and the eternal search for a loving relationship. “A fascinating account of Joe Hucknall’s upbringing in working class Barrow, and his struggles as a gay man in post-war Britain. Very enjoyable and highly readable. It’s a pity Hucknall took so long to pursue his teenage ambition to become a writer.” Michael Crick, Biographer & Political Correspondent Channel 4 News “A revelation and a thoroughly enjoyable read.” Mick Hucknall, Singer & Songwriter ISBN: 978 1 904585 49 7 Paperback, 240 pages, £7.99 By Donald West Donald West, psychiatrist and criminologist, published a book arguing for tolerance at a time when gays in the UK were social pariahs and legally criminals. Now, over fifty years later, he can write openly as a gay man describing his simultaneous pursuit of a secret, fraught love-life and a precarious professional career. In investigations of the paranormal, researches into the roots of delinquency, studies of sexual crime and of society’s response to sexual abuse, he advances some unpopular ideas. Although influenced by his life among a sexual minority, he tries to reach his objective, evidence-based conclusions. His stories of forced secrecy and threatened exposure reflect difficulties of the past that have not completely disappeared in supposedly more enlightened times. ISBN: 978 1 904585 23 7 Volume One: A Space to Breathe By Peter Scott-Presland A history of the Campaign for Homosexual Equality and its times. By Peter Scott-Presland with Foreword by Paul O’Grady The Campaign for Homosexual Equality (CHE) was the largest LGBT organisation ever in the UK. It had over 5,000 members and 150 local groups, from St. Ives to Sunderland, from Swansea to Norwich. For twenty years (1970–1990) it campaigned ceaselessly for the human rights of LGBT people. It provided a social network, support, counselling and encouragement to ‘come out’ for tens of thousands of LGBT people all over the country. For people living in smaller towns it was often the only form of support and socialising that was available. The story of CHE is the story of courage in small things, as ordinary lesbians and gays battled to get their voices heard in their communities. It’s also a story of humour and anger, ruckus and rumpy-pumpy, told with with, elegance and style by Peter Scott-Presland, a journalist who has interviewed many of those involved, and knew many more. A monument to a generation of activists which is also a thundering good read. ISBN: 978-1-904585 -75-6 Hardback, 640 pages, £35 Masculinities and the Victorian Stage By David Haldane Lawrence and edited by Ross Burgess. The rich tapestry of life in and around London theatres in the Victorian age. Oscar Wilde and his first-night supporters with their green carnations, soon to be dispersed when disaster struck; ‘Fanny and Stella’ parading in full drag, and their triumph in court; Sir Henry Irving and his close male friendships. Plus the many ways that the theatre impacted the lives of men, as actors, musicians, dramatists, and men behind the scenes and in the audience. Diverse Performances is a comprehensive survey of the role of men in the Victorian theatre, with insights into the behaviour of ‘swells’ in the audience, the unhealthy conditions backstage, the techniques of lighting as gas jets were replaced by limelight and then by electricity, the struggle of playwrights to earn a decent living, the portrayal of soldiers sailors, and working men in popular melodrama, and the struggle for actors to be considered ‘respectable’. David Haldane Lawrence was working on this book, an expansion of his PhD thesis, up to his untimely death in 2009. Ross Burgess has thoroughly revised it, combining what appeared to be the best sections of David’s various drafts, and prepared it for publication by Paradise Press. 384 pages, with 59 illustrations, full references and select bibliography. Price £11.95 Cover design by David Tilbury and foreword by Jeremy Kingston.

At Prospect Street Consulting, everything we do is geared toward helping salespeople convert more opportunities in front of the client. We focus on that metric above all others because we believe it to be the tipping point of profitability. The majority of sales and marketing dollars invested by most companies is committed to getting a salesperson in front of a prospect. Profitability, however, hinges on the percentage of those prospects who become clients–and refer other prospects. What’s different about Prospect Street is that we combine elements from the worlds of strategic planning, marketing and training to get the job done. Specifically, we help business units answer the following questions: - Are your people in front of the right prospects? There is tremendous power in knowing what you do and whom you do it for. Can your people clearly articulate your position in the market so their efforts are highly focused? Are they always calling on people who make or influence the buying decision? (Two thirds of sales calls in America are made on people who do NOT). - Are your prospects predisposed to doing business with you? Is your story engaging and compelling? Does it penetrate and stick? We help you build a story that resonates with target clients. - Do your people have the client skills they need to win the business? - Do your salespeople harness the full resources of the firm? - Are they great problem solvers? - Do they prepare and practice for sales meetings? - Have they developed their communication and interpersonal skills – especially in the areas of questioning and listening – so they will instinctively say and do the right things when they are in front of the decision maker? - Are sales managers developing and motivating their people to constantly improve their skills and ability? Coming out of a Prospect Street training program, salespeople will be able to identify target prospects and confidently tell the story that will get them an appointment. They will then understand that to win the business they must turn the table and do a great job of getting the prospects to open up and tell their story. Converting sales opportunities is not about how well we articulate our products and services. It’s about how well we demonstrate to the prospect that we get it – that we understand their situation – better than anyone else in the hunt. Or training, however, is not just geared toward salespeople and sales teams. We spend at least as much time working with sales managers, sales support, back office and IT to develop the common approach and language that creates the basis for a sales culture. The research arm of our firm is dedicated to understanding the behavior, desires and motivation of our client’s clients so that our training and consulting will be credible, specific and actionable. Our current study and white paper is called, “What the C-Level Wants from Investment Bankers.” We have interviewed dozens of CEOs and CFOs from Fortune 500-sized companies around the world to determine what approaches bankers have taken to become trusted resources. We’ve also learned along the way – in rather colorful language – what bankers routinely do that drives top executives crazy. Hap Cooper is the co-founder and President of Prospect Street Consulting, a training, research and consulting firm focused on helping sales organizations become more profitable through improved skills and process. Prior to becoming a consultant, Hap spent 15 years in a number of sales, sales leadership, marketing and professional development positions with a diverse group of financial service organizations. Hap was the head of the Private Client Division for Mutual of Omaha’s investment banking subsidiary. Before that, he was part of the management team at J.C. Bradford in Nashville, Tennessee. At both firms, Hap transformed the culture from one organized around product distribution channels to one organized around identifying and meeting the complex needs of target clients. Hap spent the majority of his career at Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown, where he began as an Investment Representative on October 19, 1987 – the day of “The Crash.” After six years in sales, Hap joined the leadership ranks, where he became Director of Marketing and Professional Development. He was a Registered Principal and served on the Securities Industry Association Sales and Marketing Committee. Before entering the real world, Hap was an Intelligence Officer in the Berlin Brigade during the last gasp of the Cold War and a 1982 graduate of Princeton University. Hap is a prolific writer, speaker – and now blogger – working extensively in the areas of strategic visioning, consultative selling, leadership, change management and the dynamics of team performance. He has spoken to dozens of industry groups and has served on the faculty of the prestigious Securities Industry Institute at the Wharton School of Business. He teaches Client Coverage Skills for the Executive MBA program at Penn State’s Smeal College of Business and is also a frequent guest lecturer at the Johns Hopkins B-School. While not working, Hap has performed original music, sold original artwork and run the bulls of Pamplona six times. He was also a batboy for the Baltimore Orioles in their heyday. He lives in Baltimore, Maryland with his wife, Jennifer, and their three daughters, Rebecca (14), Rachel (10) and Julia (8). For more than three decades, Greg Conderacci has been using the magic of communication to help people lead happier and more rewarding lives. His work focuses on helping organizations and teams discover and defend their good ground—the fertile market niche where their productivity peaks. He teaches marketing at the Johns Hopkins University Business School and serves on its Business Advisory Board. In the 1970s, as a reporter for The Wall Street Journal, Greg covered business in Detroit (mostly the auto companies) and also wrote economics out of Washington, D.C. (mostly Jimmy Carter). In the 1980s, he created and marketed several innovative programs for the poor of Maryland, including the state’s largest soup kitchen (it’s where the Pope eats when he comes to Baltimore). In the 1990s, Greg was Director of Marketing for Price Waterhouse’s information technology consulting practice in the Philadelphia – Washington region, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Prudential’s managed care operations in the Baltimore-Washington area, and Chief Marketing Officer for Alex. Brown (America’s Oldest Investment Bank). Most recently, he was Director of Marketing for Deutsche Bank Alex. Brown, responsible for marketing strategy, sales force coaching and training. He is a magna cum laude graduate of Princeton University, where he was editor-in-chief of The Daily Princetonian; he also holds a Masters in Public Policy from Harvard University. A registered representative and registered principal, he is a graduate of the Securities Industry Institute at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. For his age, he is a fairly decent instinctive archer and long distance bicycle rider. Before joining Prospect Street Consulting as the Vice President of Business Development, John was an experienced and accomplished sales leader in the group insurance industry. He specializes in the mentoring, coaching and development of new and experienced sales professionals. In addition to general product and industry training, John has worked with sales teams locally and nationally to perfect their interviewing, discovery, preparation, problem-solving and presentation skills. Today, John develops and implements individual and team coaching programs for sales executives and leaders to improve organizational, management and leadership skills. John’s career spans more than three decades in the sales and marketing of employee benefits programs for small, mid-size and large organizations. He began his career with The Guardian Life Insurance Company in New York City in 1986 as a Group Sales Consultant. He moved to the Washington DC area in 1993 and continued to develop brokerage relationships and market benefits’ programs in The Mid-Atlantic Region. He participated in Maryland Health Underwriters and was a member of GWAHU (Greater Washington Area Health Underwriters). Having been a perennial “Top Gun” producer, John was promoted to Regional Sales Director in 2002 and was responsible for increasing sales to over $35M annually with premium under management of more than $155M. Throughout his career John received numerous awards and designations as a national sales leader. John grew up in Paterson, New Jersey and received his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Business Administration from William Paterson College in 1985. He has competed in numerous half marathons over the last 7 years, and plans to run his first full marathon in 2019. John has coached youth soccer for 19 seasons and continues to play the game. He served on the Board of Directors at Mary of Nazareth School in Darnestown, Maryland for 6 years. He continues to serve on The Stewardship Council at Our Lady of The Visitation Parish in Darnestown, Maryland. John resides in Rockville, Maryland with his wife, Patty. They have four children: Michael (24), Ryan (22), Jenna (20) and Emma (12). “Why do we do what we do?” and “Why don’t we do more of what we know to be effective?” Larry has been pursuing the answer to those two questions for several decades while working with sales organizations to increase their organizational capacity. Which is, in essence, a way to say help sales people sell more. To be at their best. Larry has 30 plus years of experience in sales organizations including line sales and operations management as well as designing, developing, and delivering training programs. His more recent focus is on delivering skills development programs including: Consultative Selling, Team Selling, Sales Coaching, Relationship Management, Strategic Account Planning, Meeting Management, Creative Problem Solving, Team Building, and Implementing Change in Sales Organizations. All the while continuing to actively sell as part of his own consulting practice. His training the last few years has focused beyond the technical skills represented above and now includes incorporating work on developing programs that address what gets in the way of people changing (the second part of his driving question) so that his clients’ investment in training is much more likely to result in sustainable changes in behavior and thus results. His is driven by learning what makes individuals and organizations more effective in accomplishing their goals. His belief is that true developmental coaching is vastly under used path to that end. “There are very few organizations where people fully support each other’s continued growth and development.” He wants to change that, “one organization at a time. Larry is a presenter at national training association meetings including the International Society of Performance Improvement (designated as an Encore Presenter) and the NASAGA (North American Simulation and Gaming Association). He was also selected as a faculty member for the Federal Judicial Center’s Leadership Development Program. He lives in Walnut Creek with his wife of 30 years and their cats. Their passions are spoiling grandchildren, adventure travel, native plants, photography and sailing. Larry chairs the Training Committee for US Sailing and has taught sailing at OCSC Sailing in Berkeley CA and at the United Sates Naval Academy in Annapolis MD.

- Corticosteroids are used to treat a range of issues. From asthma, lupus and organ rejections too rashes and inflammation. They have been hailed as a wonder drug and for some people they are but there are some side effects to we aware of. - Chip Review @ (11:50): Feast & Fury – Habanero Hickory BBQ - Trivia question of the week @ (09:28): How many black keys are there on a traditional piano? - Follow us on Instagram: 2pts_n_a_bagofchips and/or Twitter @2PTsNaBagOChips to see photos, video and get additional episode specific information throughout the week. - Thanks for listening!! To Subscribe, Review and Download select your preferred hyperlink below Brief overview of the episode: Corticosteroids are used to suppress inflammation and immune response. They are commonly used to treat lupus, asthma, arthritis, autoimmune disease, as an anti-rejection medication, Addison’s disease, and for diagnostic purposes. Glucocorticoids are natural produced by the adrenal glands from cholesterol with Cortisol being the basis for corticosteroids. Most people are familiar with cortisone, hydrocortisone and prednisone but there are many other versions all used to treat different areas. Corticosteroids can be administered in an number of routes, oral, pill, cream and injection. Oral is the most common. Prednisone is the most common oral corticosteroid. This form of administration means the corticostroids travel around the entire body. Which leads to a great potential for side effects because more systems are involved. Thankfully short-term use is not typically associated with any meaningful issues. Long-term use does however present some issues. Some of the more common and concerning side effects include, glaucoma, skin thinning, diabetic issues, bone health issues, immune system suppression (when that is not the desired use) and both high and low blood pressure. When corticosteroids are used and monitored appropriately there is little concern for significant side effects.

HP Phoenix h9-1120t System Review: HP's Gaming Desktop Round Two with Tahiti and Ivy Bridgeby Dustin Sklavos on June 19, 2012 8:15 PM EST Re-Introducing the HP Phoenix Less than four months ago we had in for review HP's entry to the gaming desktop market, the Phoenix. We found that it was a compelling product that served a market segment that had gone largely ignored by the major vendors, though the Sandy Bridge-E build had a hard time justifying its cost. Worse, by the time our review went up HP had already basically obsoleted our review unit. Today we go for a second round with the HP Phoenix, and this time we're taking a look at what HP claims should be a much more compelling model than the one we reviewed before. You'll recall Sandy Bridge-E and NVIDIA's last-generation GeForce GTX 580 drove the price up to a staggering $2,880, putting it easily within striking distance of the boutiques you would normally be buying gaming desktops from. Our review unit today exchanges Sandy Bridge-E for Ivy Bridge, and includes the promised update from Fermi to Tahiti. It's been well established that Sandy Bridge-E's value proposition is a dubious one, and for gamers it's nigh nonexistent. I've actually even upgraded my personal workstation from a Gulftown i7-990X to an i7-3770K; unless you're doing a lot of serious video editing and doing it frequently, the extra two cores just aren't worth the increased power consumption and expense. Even then, editors routinely posting video to YouTube and Vimeo may find more utility out of Intel's Quick Sync than they would from two extra cores (as I have). Suffice it to say, nine times out of ten, the market HP is targeting with the Phoenix is going to be best served by an Ivy Bridge quad-core. HP has made the necessary updates and here's what we're looking at for round two: |HP Phoenix h9se Specifications |Custom HP Phoenix Intel Core i7-3770K (4x3.5GHz, Hyper-Threading, Turbo to 3.9GHz, 22nm, 8MB L3, 77W) |Custom Intel Z75 Chipset Board |2x4GB Samsung DDR3-1333, 2x2GB Micron DDR3-1333 (max 4x8GB DDR3-1333) AMD Radeon HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 (OEM) (1792 GCN Cores, 800MHz/5GHz core/RAM, 384-bit memory bus) |Hitachi Deskstar 7K3000 2TB 7200-RPM SATA 6Gbps HDD |Blu-ray/DVDRW Combo Drive Ralink RT5392 802.11b/g/n Wireless Atheros AR8161 PCIe Gigabit Ethernet IDT 92HD73E1 (with Beats Audio) Speaker, mic/line-in, surround jacks, optical out for 7.1 sound 4x USB 2.0 SD/MMC/CF card reader 2x USB 3.0 Headphone and mic jacks 4x USB 2.0 2x USB 3.0 Speaker, mic/line-in, surround jacks 1x DVI (Radeon) 1x HDMI (Radeon) 2x Mini-DisplayPort (Radeon) |Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1 16.22" x 6.89" x 16.34" (412mm x 175mm x 415mm) Closed CPU liquid-cooling loop |2-year hardware and 1-year software support Starts at $999 Review system configured at $1,689 Right off the bat it's safe to assume the Ivy Bridge-based system is going to outperform the Sandy Bridge-E-based system we reviewed in February in most tasks. We lose two CPU cores and an SSD in the process, but doing so shaves $1,200 off of the price tag. In exchange, our graphics card has been updated to AMD's Radeon HD 7950, and in fact NVIDIA is now off the table entirely for graphics card options in the Phoenix. That said, the starting configuration is pretty dire. HP only offers the Intel Core i7-3770K in the Ivy Bridge-based Phoenix, which is fine, but the default graphics card is an anemic Radeon HD 7670 with 1GB of DDR3 (basically a rehash of the HD 6670 but with twice the RAM). At a starting price of $1,199 for the Ivy Bridge system, this is pathetic to the point where an end user willing to sacrifice some CPU performance can actually buy a gaming notebook with better performance at the same price. Here's the real problem: upgrade prices on most of the components are exorbitant bordering on extortionate, Apple-level gouging. The default configuration includes 8GB of DDR3 (10GB with the current sale), and that's fine, but HP wants to charge you $600 to go up to 32GB of DDR3-1333 when you can purchase the same amount of memory at DDR3-1600 speeds at retail for a third of the cost. Even 16GB (4x4GB) is an unreasonable $160, and that's ignoring the fact that HP still equips the system with lowly DDR3-1333 when DDR3-1600 is roughly the same price at retail. It's just cheap. The graphics card is worse. Going up to a Radeon HD 7770 will cost you $180, and the Radeon HD 7950 is a staggering $430. That's at least a $50 premium over retail on each, and that's ignoring the fact that they're replacing the existing (mediocre) card; an HD 6670 will generally set you back at least $50, so basically you're paying HP $100 over the cost of retail pricing for the GPU upgrades. About the only place they don't gouge you is on the price of hard drives, but SSDs are also overpriced by about $100 apiece. I went and checked with boutiques to see if they could compete with HP on price here. They do, and then some, provided you're willing to sacrifice the smaller form factor of the Phoenix. iBuyPower's default Gamer Paladin E810 configuration is $1,519 and ships with faster memory, a faster video card, and a better motherboard with support for Lucid Virtu. Switch to the comparably sized LAN Warrior and it actually gets even worse. Bounce over to AVADirect and their Compact Gaming System, same deal. Where are the savings we're supposed to be able to get from going with a major OEM like HP that can drive prices down? Unfortunately, they're not here. Okay, so the pricing isn't all that compelling. You can put together a system with better features at gaming shops like the above for less money, or you could even go the DIY route and end up spending around $1475 for a similar mATX build with a better motherboard and RAM, or closer to $1400 if you go with less expensive options. Still, paying $200 extra to get a pre-built system isn't the end of the world, if the performance and other elements are there. Let's see if this Phoenix is able to rise again from the ashes of a burned checkbook.

The secret society in Cincinnatus actually exists. The Society of the Cincinnati was founded in 1783 following the Revolutionary War. The society’s founders wanted to make sure the sacrifices made to protect our liberties were never forgotten. Tomorrow will be a day of barbecues and fireworks for most Americans. While there’s no reason why we shouldn’t enjoy the day, I think The Society of the Cincinnati got it right with their dedication to remembrance. Take a moment this weekend and remember all the sacrifices, past and present, that have allowed us to celebrate our freedom. Have a safe, enjoyable 4th of July!

As usual when discussing a project the political world has got the relationship between jobs and costs entirely the wrong way around. Donald Trump, and others, are waving around job creation numbers like a toddler showing Mommy how the toilet training is going along. Proud pointing to all the good work being done here. Which is to entirely miss the point about jobs and projects–the number of jobs created by a project is a cost of that project, not a benefit of it. We would thus very much prefer to minimise job creation, not maximise it. That is, we should hope that the people saying Keystone XL will produce 35 jobs are correct, not the people touting 20 and 30 thousand. But, you know, it’s traditional to get this wrong: And Trump’s touting of the number of jobs to be created by the project – hyperbolic by most estimates – could also draw increased scrutiny to its economic benefits, particularly for the blue-collar tradesmen whose lot the president has promised to improve….(…)…Trump claims the number would be 28,000, and TransCanada promises 13,000 in construction alone, while the Obama-era State Department slims that estimate down to about 3,900 – and just 35 permanent ones. Opponents of the project have pointed out that drastic difference between permanent and temporary work in accusing advocates of inflating job-creation numbers… My colleague Ellen Wald has a good review of how many jobs will be created where. But it is still true that we must consider those construction jobs to be a cost, not a benefit, of the pipeline project. On the useful logical grounds that they are a cost. At one level this is entirely obvious. The pipeline builders are going to have to pay the workers to come and do those jobs. If you’ve got money going out that’s a cost. Jobs are therefore a cost, obviously so. But there’s another economic level to this as well. The true price of something is what you must give up to get it. If we’ve 35, or 28,000, jobs on the pipeline then that’s 35, or 28,000, people not doing something else. The price to us, the cost to us, of the pipeline is thus the loss of the other things those 35, or 28,000, would produce in the absence of their working on the pipeline. Given that pretty much all of them are going to be construction workers that means something else that doesn’t get built. Say, just for the lolz, that without the pipeline we’d have a project to turn Route 66 into the Chuck Berry Memorial Highway. If we don’t have the pipeline those construction workers can build the highway. If we do have the pipeline we can’t have the highway. The cost of Keystone to us is therefore the absence of the Chuck Berry Memorial Highway. That is, all this chest beating about how many jobs Keystone XL will create is entirely the wrong way around. For jobs are a cost of the project, not a benefit. Jobs Are A Cost Of The Keystone XL Pipeline, Not A Benefit – Forbes

Movement of New Forces party leader Mikheil Saakashvili has called on his supporters to walk to the Ukrainian Verkhovna Rada building and demand that parliamentarians pass legislation on the president's impeachment. "Let's go to the Rada all together and demand the president's impeachment," Saakashvili said to a crowd of his supporters and journalists on Kostelna Street in central Kyiv on December 5, after leaving a vehicle in which law enforcement agencies had planned to deliver him to investigators for questioning. "I am calling on everyone to go to Maidan and begin the process of ridding the country of [President Petro] Poroshenko," he said. After that, Saakashvili and his supporters walked down Kostelna Street toward Independence Square. Prosecutor General of Ukraine Yuriy Lutsenko has claimed the leader of the New Forces Movement party, ex-head of Odesa regional state administration, Mikheil Saakashvili, received from the fugitive Serhiy Kurchenko $500,000 for his activities in Ukraine. "A citizen of Ukraine Severion Dengadze, in agreement with Saakashvili, turned through a confidant to Serhiy Kurchenko, who is fleeing from prosecution ... on the issue of the stable financing of Saakashvili's activities in exchange for the interests of the members of the organized criminal group. We recorded a $500,000 receipt of funds from the Russian side for Saakashvili," he said at a briefing in Kyiv on December 5.

This year’s Assisi Hospice Charity Fun Day has set a target to raise S$900,000 through fun and games. Minister of State for Trade and Industry Teo Ser Luck and CEO of Temasek Holdings Ho Ching joined the celebrations at SJI International School on Sunday. Assisi Hospice cares for people whose lives have been affected by life-limiting illnesses. The organisers feel more education and public awareness are needed for people to understand hospice care is not the same as hospital or nursing home care. Hospice care is about providing the best care available and giving support, so that patients may be able to live life to the fullest, right up to the end. A highlight of this year’s event is the cycling fundraiser by Mr Lim Wee Yin. Starting on 28 April in southwest China, he cycled 5,000 kilometres to arrive at the Charity Fun Day. Just before arriving, he was joined in Malacca by a team of 13 cyclists, comprising friends and nine staff from Sembcorp, who cycled 270 kilometres to Singapore.

The Jewish Center Orchestra, under the direction of Maestro Julius Chajes, earned national prestige for its success in attracting world-renowned figures in composition and performances, mentoring and developing young talent, bringing a new level of music appreciation to the Detroit metropolitan area, and extending its influence as a first-class symphony around the world. The Jewish Community Center in the 1940s became the focus of musical achievement for the greater Detroit community. The Jewish Community Center at Woodward and Holbrook was the first Jewish Center in Detroit, dedicated in 1933 and enlarged in 1939. A fledgling Jewish Center Orchestra began there under the direction of Valter Poole, a violist and assistant conductor of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. Poole was given the directorship under the Works Progress Administration (WPA), designed in 1939 to offer work to the unemployed. Musicians, artists, and writers were offered employment under the Federal Arts Project, a division of the WPA, to provide art in non-federal government buildings. In 1940, prominent New York pianist Julius Chajes was hired as musical director of the Jewish Community Center in Detroit, where he would remain a leading member of Detroit’s musical community for the next 45 years. Under Chajes, the Jewish Center Orchestra evolved into a semi-professional ensemble comprised of both adults and young performers. Among the many notable Chajes disciples are Joseph Silverstein, concertmaster of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and Joseph Gingold, one-time director of the Jewish Center Orchestra, who became concertmaster of the Detroit Symphony and subsequently, director of the Cleveland Symphony. Perhaps because of the uncertain situation of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra during the WWII years, the Jewish Center Orchestra became a repository of musical life for the entire city of Detroit and its surrounding communities, adding Detroit Symphony musicians to its ranks of amateurs. The performances were highly acclaimed in numerous Detroit News articles in the 1950s. Chajes’ forward thinking was also evident throughout the 1950s, in awarding a majority of the first chair positions to women, long before the women’s liberation movement. Detroit Mayor Louis Miriani proclaimed February 7, 1961 as Julius Chajes Day, noting that Chajes “has contributed to the cultural development of this city, raising the Center Symphony Orchestra to a position of eminence among community orchestras in Michigan.” Chajes remained as head of the orchestra until shortly before his death in early 1985. In those last years, the orchestra performed at the newly built Jewish Community Center on Maple and Drake in West Bloomfield. In March 1985, a long-scheduled concert featuring Chajes on the piano became, instead, a memorial to the beloved leader. When Chajes passed away before the concert, orchestra members dedicated the program to his career. Photo: JCC Orchestra, circa 1941.
